![]() In 1972 I started working on IBM 360/65's and 165's (256K memory) and the IBM 360 assembler language which we upgraded to Assembler "G" ( University of Waterloo - the first cooperative CS and separate CS faculty - 1965).Īlthough I loved assembly language and writing macros, I knew that higher level languages were emerging - Cobol, PL/1, PL/S, Pascal and C). ![]() I developed what we called RORI (roll-in roll-out programming - today it's called paging) The programming was similar to ALGOL but then we graduated to the Uniivac 9300 with 32K of memorry (heaven!!!!) and a 360 assembler like language. I graduated from there to a Univac 1050 (8 K of memory) running the Console exec (my memory fades here a bit - I know there were three execs). I learned the IBM 402 punch card programming (a slab with wires). I have been involved with computers since 1969 (a lot of you were not even born yet).!!!!Ī bit of history. I'll admit that I am 55 (almost) and using Linux.
