I'm unlikely to show up at an advanced topics meeting, since I assume
those are for IT professionals and advanced Linux users, and I'm
neither. I wasn't aware that some computer languages are not
programming languages. At any rate, he said he planned to learn a
computer language, not a programming language, and he didn't mention
that he was looking for a complex one. I would think anyone interested
in learning about computer languages should learn HTML; even I know some.
