I did dable in PASCAL a little 30+ years ago. BASIC also, and       equally as long ago.              More recently (10 years) I took a class in Python. It was also meant more       for engineers, I later figured out.              COBOL is more straight-forward. Define all your variables, maintain       structure for legibility, etc. For my brain, it made more sense.                      * SLMR 2.1a * Clap on < |
