May I ask for opinions?
I have programmed in FORTRAN, C and just a bit of C++ (enough
to scare the hell out of me - but that is not the issue).
I now hear people say:
I program in matlab.
I program in SecondLife.
I program in <insert some established program here: one that enables user
manipulation or interaction>
One person, I recall, from years back, told me he programmed
in Inventor (that older object oriented API to OpenGL from SGI).
When I asked him about it, I thought that he had meant he compiled
the codes himself. Instead, he created the objects in a CAD package
and read them into an already established scene graph.
So I am curious to know if there is some standard definition of
what "programming" means.
Just curious....
