RE: What Was Your First Programming Language?
(07-04-2015 10:24 AM)Bill (Smithville NJ) Wrote: SNOBOL was a very interesting language. I remember having written a tool in STRUBOL, a SNOBOL preprocessor which added some structured programming to it. The tool helped me to format my diploma thesis written on a 3270 terminal without German umlauts. It replaced ae with ä and was full of exception rules (e. g. leave 'Feuer' as is and don't change it to 'Feür'). The tool did a remarkable job. The output went into a formatting tool which in turn feed a gigantic laser printer. To complete my above mentioned list of computer languages: BASIC -> FORTRAN IV -> SIMULA -> STRUBOL (see above) -> Z80 assmbler -> C -> C++ -> COBOL 85 (on Tandem) -> TACL (Tandem Command Language) -> REXX (on OS/2) -> Java -> ABAP-OO. The list is most probably incomplete as it contains mainly the languages I actually used (or still use) for my projects.
