And they appreciate it, huh. It makes sense, I guess that's the digital-age version of a kid playing with the box their toy came in. And man, some of those old games really are timeless. If I had some of my own, and they expressed interest, I'd like to try teaching them from both ends of the stack instead of starting in the middle like I did. It was a bit frustrating knowing how to code, but not how to either make a modern-looking application, or how the code was itself working.
