Why Take a Compiler Course?

When I was 12 years old our class got punished for something childish. The teacher gave us an assignment to write I will not chew gum in class 100 times. Everybody was pissed. I did:

  10 set i=1
  20 i=i+1
  20 print i, ". I will not chew gum in class"
  30 if i<100 goto 20
  40 exit

or something similar.

Not a compiler, but how old am I?

Consider this a pull request: 10 set i=1 -> set i=0 Fixes the missing line '1. I will not chew gum in class'.
