Always had an interest but I was probably 25 when I wrote my first line of code in c#, and only because I needed to solve a problem in my day job. Continued to develop and maintain the applications for 4 years, left around year ago to become full time software engineer. The most enjoyable Job I have had so far 
You thinking about starting?

I spent a few months learning Python when I was around 25 so I could program some basic scripts/bots. It was interesting, but after I coded the bot I needed, I just stopped trying to learn more.

Check out Alxafrica, they are offering a one year intensive course for anyone who wants to become a software engineer. Their next training begins in August (next month).

Started around 11. In an obscure language called BASIC. I learnt it from a manual I got along with a shitty computer that I bought from a neighbour for $10.
I am 18 now. Looking back, it reminds me how much I have learnt and seen along the way. From writing for-loops in BASIC to making websites with ruby-on-rails to fucking around with Haskell and Delphi to reverse engineering APIs and pirating programming books cause I couldnt afford them.

I will not mention my age, I will just mention that more than 22 years have passed from the first line of vb code
