My C-64 programming progress was :
10 PRINT "Hello" 20 GOTO 10
Then to make it fill the whole screen using a trailing ';' :
10 PRINT "Hello "; 20 GOTO 10
Then realised putting the GOTO on the same line made it run much faster :
10 PRINT "Hello "; GOTO 10
It's all been downhill since then.... ;-)
Cool, I had the exact same experience. That single semi-colon (on a TRS-80) changed my life... 40 years ago.
CS degree, developing Internet applications since Gopher days.
Occasionally get the same ';' feeling with new JavaScript features.
Now take what Uglify creates for me as a starting point, and make JS code faster and tinier
