I've never played a computer game, ever. Well, I played Asteroids a bit back in the 80s, if that counts. I haven't watched TV for a couple decades either for that matter. It's all just a massive distraction. Don't unhook or you might miss something.

I stopped watching TV in 1999, but I do a bit again, mostly to spend time with my wife

So you just employ other methods to distract yourself?

If you count writing code...

That's the best use of computers! 
Well, given you're playing the right game, of course

I hope it does not sound immodest if I say that, for me, programming is the ultimate game.

I have been given a list of strings that are actually numeric identifiers; these can autoincremented but I am trying to determine what the actually numbers are, as they contain alphanumeric characters. Can anyone advise on how to do this?
eg. x774b4n, x7741zs, x774ahm, x774cb0
Thanks.
