About

I started my interactions with Computer when I was in 10th standard, during summer holidays. I was attending a summer camp back then. Very soon, a computer system came to our house (it was for my eldest sister who was doing MCA at the time, but was used more often by me). I remember the days of GWBASIC, ROM settings, a major new system launch - that was windows 3.11, handling hard disk to transfer data between two systems, ... Moving forward, completed a full course at TULEC during my 11th / 12th standard education as part time, which covered C language and unix. At school, I became the computer whiz as a result ! Then later I found that one language is never enough -- started with C in TULEC course, did PASCAL at school, during MS learned C#, first full-time job navigated through gob / c++ / javascript / luascript (even touched little bit of fortran there), and after the first (and only) job switch dedicated myself to the cause of Java (till date) !!
