There is sth I wrote about C/C++ in my 1st Personal Homepage:

C is a programming language designed by Dennies Ritchie during the early 1970s and immediately used to re-implement Unix.

I first know C on 1988 in a computer magazine and scan its structure and basic syntax later for a book borrowed for Regional Urban Council Library. I was attracted by its flexibility, speed and power. And it became my main research target until I found C++.

Undoubtly, C is really diffcult to be learned. It need you to know much about how the computer work and many technical stuff. Fortunately, I have a touch on Apple IIe 6502’s Assmely Language before I met C and have a basic knowledage about how the computer system work particularly the OS). Therefore, I suffer fewer problem during learning and familier with it very fast.

However, never ask me how to intergate C with Assmely Language, I never put much time on the assmely language of Intel 80×86 and the internal detail of MS-DOS. (lazy! )

C++, in fact, I thought that it is only an complier’s name of C (Like Borland’s Turbo C) when I find saw its’ name. But I soon realized that it is another programing language when I saw some syntax like:

cout < < "Hello World!n";

. The first thing of C++ attracted me was that it is a better C. (with const, overload and inline function) And I had bought the Chinese version of Bjarne Stroustrup’s The C++ Programming Language First Edition, the only bible of C++ at that time, in 1989 when I have no chance to have a C++ compiler. (Crazy? )

Sometime, I found my dad is really very interesting. On the last moved (just 2 weeks ago), he found some porn under my bed. He was puzzled when he had bought those porn. Oh, did he ever realize that his son (me) have already a 28 years old guy? Will it be more strange that I never feel interest on such a kind of stuff?

今日 (Ok… 應該係昨日) 有個朋友話呢個網頁感性? Oh.. 好似 Deki 上年都講過 d 類似既說話。Ok.. 我諗我無乜會留意呢個網頁感唔感性.. 真唔真摰! It just sth I would like to write down or would like others to know. (又來 Bilingual)

計計埋理, 我都寫過幾個 version 既個人網頁，第一、二個係 Geocities, 主要都係 d links 收集。第三個因為見人將 Daily (算係 Weblog) 式既野放上網，開始有個 Feeling Tray 既野出現。第四個完全變左Linux 新聞網，第五個吸收左 slashdot 既形式.. 就成為呢個網站既前身。大家都睇到我停寫左野成年半.. 係令年三月尾先重新寫番.. 又申請埋個 Domain xychen.org.. 改左 d code…

Why this page? 為乜搞個咁賴深情既網? 係我第三個個人網站 就咁寫過:

In the view of most of my friends, I may be a very quiet guy or talketive but always technical and can’t be understood by others. hmm…. In fact, I enjoy to express myself with others but don’t want to bore anyone. That why I create these pages. Writing down my feeling, what I am think. Let my friends know more about me and let me understand more about myself during writing.

由細到大, 我都係一個諗多過講，講多過做既人。想過好多事，但好少記底。亦都好少或者無乜機會講俾其他人聽。Have you heard it? I’m yelling in the Cyberspace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
