Re: Computer Programming
Oh yeah, I remember punch cards...
Yuk!
Thank the gods of computing that we now have graphical interfaces & mice.
I have a friend who developed the first computerized testing facility for jet engines at Tinker in the 60s. They didn't even have a keyboard for working with the computer!
They hooked up a teletype machine for making punch cards.
My mom used to make christmas wreaths with the cards. Man, I wish I had one of those now, it would be a wonderful novelty piece today.
