Proud Code

GoogleCloud asks: *What was the first program you wrote that you were proud of?*

_Please include what language it was written in and a brief description. Feel free to go out of bounds if you have a creative answer!_

My response:

At age 17 I was published in Compute!'s Gazette. The small utility, named ML Runner, is tool written in Commodore 64 Basic and 6502 Assembly. It converted machine language binaries into easy to use BASIC programs. The result was a better, easier way for users to execute code.

You can see the actual short code on page 98 in the June 1987 Issue here:
