What Was Your First Programming Language?

[Bill (Smithville NJ)]

My first programming language was Fortran on punched cards. At that time, Fortran was THE language to teach in the first course on programming. It actually served me well. I ended up becoming involved in energy conservation and maintained/enhanced a large fortran energy conservation computer program for many years from 1978 - 1995.

My second language was Pascal, then PL/1. I never did Basic until I purchased my first PC - a Radio Shack Model I in the 1970's.
