From an IRC exchange:
< MGP> First Program in FORTRAN Runs (1954) today in history
> And that program is probably still running somewhere today
I know this probably makes me broken or something, but I have a fondness for Fortran. It was the first real (read: compiled) language I learned. I've completely forgotten it in the last 17 years. I still remember when I took a C++ based class. I was in horror. Operators should NEVER be overloaded. But that's a rant for another day. Today is Fortran's day.
