A subscription to the now defunct children’s magazine 3-2-1 Contact. That magazine would sometimes include the code for simple BASIC computer programs. Eventually I figured out they would run on the (then common) Apple II classroom computer at school, tried one (a simple guess the number game with a preset answer), figured out how to change the answer and tweak the code, and got hooked.
Ultimately this led to a degree in software engineering and a job in IT that I quite enjoy, especially when writing scripts or working with code.

10 LET A = CODESKILLS
20 IF A = CODESKILLS PRINT “MONEY”
30 GOTO 30
So… print a finite amount of money, and wait for jail?
Now I’m hungry for spaghetti code
No no no
It’s:
10 PRINT "Penis "
20 GOTO 10
