I don't get this fad in "functional programming". Who can recommend a decent dysfunctional language?
Life is too shor
COBOL It was damn dysfunctional when I wrote in it!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Well, seing that it's going to come up sooner rather than later, I might as well mention it right away: VB.Net! ;)

The line numbering takes me way further back than VB.Net, all the way to Commodore 64 (and as you know, I'm in a nostalgic mood today :laugh:) :thumbsup:

Me, all the timeIn VB3 you could use optional line numbers. We had a doofus who would put them in as it 'helped with debugging'. We had him humanely destroyed.

You can still do that (use line numbers, that is) - I just checked in my VS 2015. Not only for VB, even for C#! :~ Tools / Options / Text Editor / Basic (or C#) - And there it is: The Line numbers checkbox :laugh:

You can still use line numbers in the latest version of VB.NET:
10: Dim i As Integer = 1
20: Console.WriteLine("Nope")
30: If i < 10 Then
40: i += 1
50: Goto 20
60: End If

Me, all the timeAh, yes... line numbering... and then you realize you need a chunk of code in the middle and no line numbers are left. That created a need for a program that could renumber your code. Fondly remembered...

Missing in Commodore BASIC and C-64 BASIC which was an even older version of Commodore BASIC. Commodore BASIC had decent garbage handling; C-64.. not so much.
