How much time do you spend programming?

I was curious about how much time other people spend programming during the day. How much do you get done? My schedules too messed up right now to comment for myself. --- "Now you see that evil will always triumph, because good is dumb." - Dark Helmet

Since I found GDNet... A whole lot less. But I used to be able to get a nice HTML interpreter or a cool Tiling system out in a day. That was with no sleep and a lot of skittles though

lately i´m staying in front of the computer since i wake up.

i learning Genesis3d( but i´m still only trying to make the demos works...)

and i also still doing that Battle System that i mention sometime ago( i already threw all code into thrash 2 times... )

talking serius i never did something relly good yet(yet...)

Depends on how motivated I am. For a long time I lived, spoke, and thought computer programming. Then for a while I barely did any programming. Then today I did like 5+ hours of coding.

I''ve done more than 10 hours of coding some days. I can code in my sleep.
For a good time hit Alt-F4! Go ahead try it, all the cool people are doing it.
I am lucky if I do 20 minutes of true programming a day. All the rest of the time I am either playing games, messing around with art ideas for my game, or reading a programming book. Hopefully I will be able to do a full hour or two of programming tonight though.

dwarfsoft and moe: I totally relate, I''ve been totally less motivated to program since finding gamedev.net. I just come and hang around on the message boards alot (well, not compared to some coughnessycough, excuse me). weird isn''t it though? I have been doing a lot of reading lately, TOTWGPG. And i''ve been learning how to use paint shop pro for the last couple of days. But really, I don''t do as much coding as I would like.
does anybody else dream code when they''re really into a project? Man, that''s weird to wake up to.

after three days without programming, life becomes meaningless
I have been doing 0 coding lately, reading a bit of TOTWGPG and the OGL Superbible... Other than that... check Here to see where my time is going.... about 14 days ago, both those numbers would have been 150! See why I haven''t done much lately

It depends what I''m working on. Lately I haven''t been getting much time in, because I''m working on this giant menu system for my RPG, and I hate writing menu systems. If I''m doing something I''m really enjoying, which is pretty often, I can work for as much time as I have free. On holiday breaks and such, I''ve spent 24 straight hours coding on a couple of occassions...

And yes, Arsenius, I dream about code sometimes! Weird stuff.

Don''t we all dream about code from time to time? Not weird if you ask me... It made my program work when I got up the next morning and tried it (or maybe I should say: got up at lunchtime ). I never mind having a dream about a fast little algorithm
