This is a great selection of 1980s programming books1, I would have read some of these. Did I really type in any of the listings though? We used to type in a lot of code, copied from magazines. It was quite laborious and not so easy to save your progress. I remember on the Commodore 64 we could not originally get the tape deck for it, so anything you did was lost when the power went off.
Had to imagine the kids today typing stuff in to place a basic2 game like this. Cuh, kids of today, am I right???
