100000 lines? Woah. Where are they all? You didn't program for money or contribute to open source projects, right?
100k lines sounds like a lot, but it isn't, especially considering the reduced concept-density of both older languages and novice programmers. My first 100k lines were unpublishable.
100000 lines is probably an underestimate. Doing a line count on all the files in my development directory, I find that I've got about 35000 lines of code in there, and I still consider myself somewhat of an amateur (I've been coding for about a year now). I code probably five hours a week or so, so a full-time programmer with similar productivity who had been programming for a decade would have written 2.8 million lines of code.
100000 lines sounds like a lot, but it's really not.
Huh. I was assuming the natural base, e.
I considered that possibility and disregarded it because exp(5) ~ 148, which is way too low.
