Pascal on a Honeywell-Xerox Sigma 9 First real paid job - PLUS (Programming Language for Univac Systems)

[MarvinMartian]

Fortran!

[Mark H2]

Four of them at once (computer engineering degree) in 1979... ICL System 4 machine code, ICL System 4 Assembler, BASIC II(?) on a RadioShack TRS80 and DEC PDP-8 machine code. Oh what fun it was. I did do some Fortran (but not so sure about that) in my last year of high school (1978)but it was aminiscule amount so I don't really count it.

Fortran - 1981

[ian dennis 0]

Fortran IVb on an IBM 1130 in 1967

[Earl Truss]

FORTRAN IV on a CDC mainframe at school in 1969. Went on to use assembler for the next 15 years while learning Pascal and C.

[Bob Buckingham]

Assembler for the Univac Digital Trainer in Jan 1965.

Algol60 1975

[kmoorevs]

Me too! I was in about 9th grade. I used to write little programs to solve math and physics homework. It was a real pain to load/save programs via cassette. I used to love playing the Scott Adams Adventure games. I actually bought the TI-Extended Basic cartridge, but I don't remember using it much. Years later when I started at uni in comp sci, Basic was the first programming course I took.

It was ALGOL60 (on a british NE503) in 68. Later (70) FORTRAN II on the CDC3300. Manfred (age 70)

[Thomas Williams]

Hi, My first programming language was Basic on a Sinclair ZX81. Then Z80 machine code on the Sinclair Spectrum. regards Asimov

[EbenRoux]

BASIC on the Commodore VIC20 :) 1984 - age 12

[Doug98502]

In high school we shared a teletype console which used a 300 baud modem to program some flavor of Basic on an HP2000 in the late 70's. We ending up with piles of rolled heat sensing paper after completing our assignments.

Mine was Pascal but now I almost forgot it
