What Was Your First Programming Language?

[larthurl]

WoW - blast from the past time

1973-1974 BASIC on PDP-8E in college
1976 RPN on HP-65 when I spent almost a month's salary to buy the 65
1977-1980 BASIC on IBM-370/158, proprietary languages for Service Bureau (part of Control Data) time sharing. Used BASIC primarily for input/output of customer data and to move data between proprietary programs (stat, finance, reporting, forecasting)
1980-1987 - HP67, HP-41 RPN, and HP 9800 series (BASIC or their version) to control instrumentation
Also used HP IBM clone (don't remember name) it was not MS-DOS compatible and could run various HP languages and their own OS. I used C and memorandum macros to write technical memos.
