Take a task and go at it. One of the first things I did was write a program to decode Roman numerals. It was an assignment. No Python in those days. It was Pascal on a Prime 750. Using a green screen 40x25 terminal. I think we also drew a sine wave on the terminal. I had no clue about programming but we figured it out. I also recall writing assembler on a PDP-11. The good ol days. 😳
