I learned on my own with QB and I never needed to excel in PC computer languages because it wasn't necessary in my job to design electronic devices with microcontrollers, it may seem unthinkable nowadays, but it really is the case. The electronic devices I design don't need PCs to work, even if I use them to work.
Strange. I had to learn (some) Python this week just to do non trivial things with Kicad.

That said, a large chunk of our electronics work is making complex LED lighting, which often has symmetries in the design that need to be scripted, so that might not be everybody's experience

I'm not sure if I understood correctly, but over time, I finally specialized in a field far removed from my primary objectives, which made me a kind of specialist outside the conventions that recently allowed me to obtain a contract of an unexpected importance. As if all this work and experience had finally paid off, even if it is considered invalid in other areas.

Coming back to my badly made Freebasic program, I'm going to keep GET for now and later I'll work on a better made version with graphical commands only to avoid GET, do you think it's better like that?

@Daniel Ouellette: How do you read the USB port?
