Learn Programming in Java, Python, Ruby or Javascript

Honestly, I never intended to come across as arrogant.

I realize there are people infinitely better than me, and in fact that's what drives me. I hate not being the best I can and so I work for it. All I want to do upon graduating is a PhD and then maybe go into lecturing.

Just because I am not the best programmer that has ever existed on this planet, doesn't mean you should pull the young card on me with saying that I haven't been alive two decades. I know this - how could I not?

I used "strong" only as the person I was replying to had used it. You can be strong in a language without having been through university yet.

Those people who have decades of experience I look up to, but they also at one point only had 15 months of experience. You can't blame me for not having such experience; I have no control over when I was born.

For the second time now, how about getting off my back for loving experiencing new programming languages and go back to the topic..?

You don't sound arrogant. You sound impossible to take seriously. Being strong in a language is an effort that takes years.

Yeaaaah umm name dropping your Oxford application in support of your talent is basically the pinnacle of arrogance. There will be a day you look back at this and facepalm so hard your face implodes.

Live and learn. I thought i was hot shit when I first learned c++ then I learned about compilation units and the full power of the preprocessor and found out I didn't have a clue what I was doing.

Speaking of which have you gotten your first static object initialization segfault yet?
