the kind of stuff that people with no coding experience make

The first complete program I ever wrote was in Basic. It took an input number and rounded it to the 10s or 100s digit. I had learned just enough to get it running. It was using strings and a bunch of if statements, so it didn't work for more than 3 digit numbers. I didn't learn about modulo operations until later.

In all honesty, I'm still pretty proud of it, I was in 4th or 5th grade after all ๐Ÿ˜‚. I've now been programming for 20+ years.
