     Cool, though HTML is a markup language, not a programming language.

     Actually, there is a huge difference, for example, in no way is a markup language turing complete. Markup languages and programming languages share almost nothing in common.

     

    Anyone doing markup in a programming language should be shot, and anyone doing programming in a markup language should be shot. :)

    Markup languages are pretty much some sort of standards for programs to share data.
    Programming languages are to make said programs and more.

    Yes, I do code for fun. Mainly in Lua, but I am now learning JS, and I can do some C#. I also enjoy HTML and CSS, but they aren't programming languages. And I want to learn PHP.

    HTML - maybe not,
    but CSS was proven to be turing-complete

    I do Python, cuz of Modeling in Blender to make easy scripts. Took me a 6 months to learn good . Not programming complicated programs, just models for games, that i test in source SDK. I didnt released one though in workshop cuz the file size is too big and low poly looks bad (i mean ugly and shitty).
