I ran my own IT consulting firm until a few weeks ago when I took a full time Internal Audit spot which I can assure you, no one wants. I am supposed to start May 15th.

I learned Fortran back in the prehistoric period when we used punch cards:

Each card contained a single line of program. You typed out this cards on a machine

We had a room filled with these card punching machines. You turned in your stack of cards just to find out one or two cards had typos and the program got kicked out....find the mistake, retype and submit again; repeat until you got it right.

Only mainframes available....actually hand held calculators didn't come out until a year or two later, and only did add, subtract, divide and multiply. And even after they came out, we weren't allowed to use them on chemistry tests....had to use a slide rule.....look it up, no batteries needed. :oops:
