For me, the first contact I had with coding it was around the last years of elementary school when my dad, a professional programmer with many years of experience told me "Son, why don't you try learning a bit o programming, I think you may find it interesting". The next day we went together to a book shop specializing in computer and science books and he bought me my first programming book. It was the bible of Visual Basic 6. It was love at first sight.
