I taught myself BASIC on a Commodore Vic 20. When I got my programming degree in 1987, the primary language was COBOL, because the main employer in the area was state government, and they all had IBM mainframes. COBOL was pretty universal. IBM had only released their first PC a couple of years before. I coded in COBOL until 2001, when I was offered a chance to transition to Windows Server applications programming in VB6. That was great, but when we transitioned to C#, it was even better. That's what I coded in until I retired in 2016. But I actually liked COBOL. It was great for batch programming and OLTP. It was quite procedural, but later, after I left COBOL, IBM created a version that had objective features. I never used it, but I suspect it might have been interesting.

@@CodingWithLewis people HATE java. As much as they do, they hate even more and people always hope they wont need to use it or they try to switch to something else. Every java application ive used has run worse thsn electron 😆 I don't evrn wanna get into the oracle stuff...

Curiously enough, given the age of COBOL and the scarcity of COBOL devs, it is actually in high demand due to the fact that a lot of banks and hospitals still have systems than run on COBOL

Speaking as someone who is fluent in VBA at a very high level..... I can confirm, it's only used in excel. :)

He forgot about ABAP mentioning COBOL ^^

Bro Matlab is extremely useful for scientific research!

I had to make a tic tac toe game in MATLAB in my first semester of uni.

agree. But № 1.5 - Pascal and the dialect Delphi, which still used by many companies. Delphi, unlike Pascal, has OOP, but the code that comes out is horrible. And it's not free. You can program Backend and GUI, but Delphi programmers put all their code in 1 or 2 files with 10 million lines of code... Also it's a pain in the a$$ to include something

I think VBA is really cool, because its really easy to learn and to understand. Learning programming in Excel is one of the best paths to learn programming i think.

As physics major and working on both python and Matlab, I found that some of the numerical approximation algorithm can only run on Matlab due to speed. Python frequently crashes even tho they are the exact same code and same computer. I still think matlab is quite good at some tasks as someone said in the chat as well

wow, COBOL… that brings back memories. Back in 1996 when i was a comp sci major for a bit, that was the main language they taught.

Assembly? Anyone? Like seriously... Learning it is the embodiment of pain itself

CISC architectures from the 70s and 80s can actually be quite fun to write asm for, because those instruction sets were designed when microprocessors were slow and it was common for programmers to write asm, so they have useful instructions, flags, and addressing modes to make programming in asm by hand easier. Memory was expensive so it was important to get things done in as few bytes as possible. x86 is (sadly, imo) the only one of these architectures that's survived to continued relevance in PCs today. Nowadays memory is cheap, CPUs are fast, and most code is in high level languages with smart compilers, and the design of modern RISC instruction sets reflects this. Power efficiency and instructions per cycle, rather than byte count, is king. The instruction sets are optimized for the compilers rather than human programmers. So they're naturally indeed quite painful to have to program in asm yourself. Especially the early ones that had crap like branch delay slots.

Assembly was better than machine language. I got to do both, for the 6502 and the 8080. I took an APL course too…anyone remember APL? I dabbled in PASCAL, but never liked it.

COBOL is hated because its syntax requires keywords which are redundant, after the first keyword has already determined what the statement is -- a redesigned COBOL could replace these keywords with commas.

Matlab is basically a prototyping tool imo. Test if something works then get someone to build an application. Also vba is surprisingly intuitive for basic stuff
