I do a lot of prototyping in C/C++, then make that code available with Perl.

...which, of course, is the real, true, and righteous way sage prorammers should develop.
Thanks, stevieb; you're doing great things.

If you didn't program your executable by toggling in binary, it wasn't really programming!

Thanks ww!!

I did, of course in the early stages literally dabble at the lowest level with binary :)

Because I needed a very low-level understanding, I practiced, messed around, and wrote a Bit::Manip module to help me understand the mechanics of binary/bit manipulation to better my knowledge of how the heck to read datasheets, and hack hardware. At the time (there was a discussion here about it), I published it as it was a no-brainer publish to the CPAN.

The C/C++ stuff came as a side effect really, when I began writing distributions for specific ICs and hardware.
