BASIC (60 years old today!) was the first programming language I ever used - on a ZX80.
It made perfect sense (well, some of the string handling was tricky).
Learning assembler and Forth, and then Pascal, Occam, Modula2, COBOL, and on and on (C, C++, Objective-C, Swift, Rust) and more recently - and chronologically backwards - Lisp, has been a wonderful adventure.
