My younger brother's class used to have to submit (by post) BASIC programs
written by hand on coding forms (sort of formalised graph-paper) and I used to
sneak my own programs in with his (they were typed in by a pool of entry
clerks)...waiting for a week to get a printout with either a bug-list or the
output. Ah...my lunar lander program.
Later worked on it using jolly old COBOL, Pascal and C. The joys of DATA
DIVISION and MOVE 1 TO COUNTER (or summat).
I remember when this were all fields....
