The Evolution of a Programmer

High School/Jr.High

          10 PRINT "HELLO WORLD"
          20 END

First year in College

          program Hello(input, output)
            begin
              writeln('Hello World')
            end.

Senior year in College

          (defun hello
            (print
              (cons 'Hello (list 'World))))

New professional

            for(i = 0; i < 2; ++i)
              printf("%s", message[i]);
