You really didn't know what coding meant? Seriously?** -- hokienole Apr 02, 2026 at 10:19 PM ET

I think there is another type of coding. It happens in medical facilities -- SHPHOKIE Apr 03, 2026 at 12:11 PM ET

Dang you boys are old! But I did have to print out my Pascal source code -- WildTurkE Apr 03, 2026 at 06:50 AM ET

WildTurkE • 04/03/26 06:50 AM ET

I preferred Fortran over Pascal just due to how you formatted your output** -- EDGEMAN Apr 03, 2026 at 07:25 AM ET

Don't forget about us COBOL kids....** -- RRHokie90 Apr 03, 2026 at 10:19 AM ET

I took classes in a lot of different languages, but COBOL was one I missed -- EDGEMAN Apr 03, 2026 at 10:57 AM ET
