C# or Java ??

Hi, I have got a new project which is based on image processing. Which language will be better for this project.. C# or Java and why ? cheers rNr
Have you considered COBOL.NET? I'm just asking. ;P

:laugh: I believe I learned that in the 70s.

Cobol or Fortran for really intensive stuff :rolleyes:
Damn - you beat me to the BOLOC representation.

COBOL - learnt that on this http://www.cisl.ucar.edu/computers/gallery/cdc/6600.jsp[^] and before you ask, yep, I'm almost that old !
Ah - I managed to avoid COBOL. I have more of a mathematical background, so I was more on the FORTRAN, APL and C track.

Never tried Fortran. But did use PLAN on an ICL 1900 series, as well as COBOL and Assembler on an IBM 360. Those were the days when timeshare was common and input via a punched card/tape after agency punching them from 80 column hand written coding sheets.

I remember those days so well.

I learn't COBOL and worked for a year programming it - makes bloated VB look positively anorexic in comparison.

You have my sympathies.

Call that old? I learned COBOL on coding sheets! :suss: I actually did, at a programming college in 1996. We only did hands-on practical once for each of three modules. Every second Saturday morning was a gruelling five hour practical written in pencil on coding sheets.

Yes thanks, I was going to say COBOLocks but I can't say that in the lounge can I? Oh no I went and said it :rolleyes:

When I learn't COBOL the tutors used to get a ruler out to measure indentation on the paper. I kid you not, if it was two centimetres out we had to type it out again. We were also taught to read code dumps in hex. But this was back in 1990. So I am surprised that in 1996 you were still doing this sort of thing - maybe it's just the sadistic trainers who teach COBOL.

They wanted to teach correct coding without relying on a compiler to identify errors.

You must be younger than you sound. My induction into COBOL was in the early 1970's, that's when the Ford Escort Mk I was still in production.
Yikes, when people see me they always think I'm younger than I am, but online it seems people think I'm older than I am. I'm thirty-eight. I attended that college nine years into my career as a military telecoms technician, to get out of the Air Force and into a world where you had to work for your money, but you got proper money. I went into SAP for two years after that, contracting for the college company's newly formed consulting division. Then I went independant, and made my mark writing a national coverage client server system, with 300 online sites, in VB6! :omg:

I took three courses in computer graphics as an undergraduate that used PL/I-80 (on a CP/M box, no less). Each graphics system had a whopping 256x192 resolution, with 256 colors per pixel (4 levels each of red, green, and blue). My final project in the third course demonstrated 3D hidden surface removal using binary space partitioning trees. BSP trees were used in the original DOOM for rendering the 3D environment :cool:.
