Admittedly you could then argue that with multiple processes? Or is this just out of interest... .
I wouldn't class that as "multi-threaded" programming as each process may only use a single thread, but it's certainly parallel programming.

Clojure??
If you want to learn a very cool modern language then Clojure is the way to go .
Erm....

I use a Mac. But I also have a PC with Windows 7. So when I want to start programming functionality for LaTeX using TeX, what's my starting point? Is there an SDK and documentation? I couldn't find any book on TeX programming.

It's not a programming language like C# is not LaTeX.
He goes on to say that even if it's possible to program in TeX, it's a really bad idea in universities, specifically with mathematics and natural sciences.

The most basic one is an 8-pin IC, uses 5V DC supply, is programmed.
They're cheap, IDE works simple, and very easy to program.
I'd recommend Arduinos if you want to try some embedded programming.

I was in college and working on a scheduling program for a friend's TextMate for my Mac.
It was worth it.
It probably barely qualifies as a programming from Borland.
Yeah, I bought RealBasic for a hobby purpose.
