In 1965 I had to go to the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago
because there were no computers in my high school.  Took a couple courses
using IITran - IIT's Fortran dialect - and punched cards to be read into an
IBM 7090/7094 and then an IBM 1620.  Learned Fortran right after that.

I wrote my first FORTRAN programs in 1965 on an IBM 1130 system.

Talking about temperatures, we also have in Germany record high temperatures
for this time of the year. In Mainz we had today +14 C or almost +60 F. In
Berlin the cherry blossoms are blooming already. (Normally in April) People
already have to deal with pollen allergy.

Merry Christmas and Happy holidays to All OT members.

Helmut

 Hi John --

>>>  I got my very first program working in 1962 - 53 years ago
Was that coded in Fortran IV?

>>> Anyone beat that?
I doubt anyone here can beat that.

Happy holidays!
