Congratulation from me, too. After six weeks of programming, I'm also quite
sure I wasn't capable of writing anything that would have been worth
posting anywhere, had there been any means to do so other than saving it to
the tape drive. :-)

Sadly, it took about 95% of my programming lifetime before object-oriented
programming came along and I (much later) truly realized what a wonder it
is.
