My first hands-on computer was a PDP-8 with 4096 12-bit words of core memory. It took 15 minutes to boot EDUBASIC into that 4K, since it carried only a 110 baud punched paper tape reader (on a real Teletype brand TTY) for storage media. If you ever wondered why BASIC was such a stupid language look what it ran on. Still, it was wonderful to have 5 1/2 digits of floating point in those days before the scientific pocket calculator was invented. A great deal of homework was done with interactive mode console operation, using something like: <br>
LET R = 1.234E-5<br>PRINT 3.14159 * R * R<br>(Thanks, Guido, for putting that handy capability into python. I've missed it over the years.)<br><br>But I digress...<br>Just know that it was a _really_ancient_ geek who said "onward."<br>
