　　Early years

　　Zuckerberg began using computers and writing software as a child in middle school. His father taught him Atari BASIC Programming in the 1990s, and later hired software developer David Newman to tutor him privately. Newman calls him a prodigy, adding that it was tough to stay ahead of him. Zuckerberg also took a graduate course in the subject at Mercy College near his home while he was still in high school. He enjoyed developing computer programs, especially communication tools and games. In one such program, since his fathers dental practice was operated from their home, he built a software program he called ZuckNet, which allowed all the computers between the house and dental office to communicate by pinging each other. It is considered a primitive version of AOLs Instant Messenger, which came out the following year.
