What Was Your First Programming Language?

[Maximilian Hohmann]

First: Keystroke programming on my dad's HP-67 (ca. 1977)

Second: Keystroke programming on my Ti-59 (ca. 1979)

Third: BASIC on the Commodore PET 2001 they bought at school (1980). But only a few hours because there only was one computer and the waiting list was long. School was over before I could develop anything meaningful

4th: FORTRAN during a programming course at university using keypunch and line printer. Fortran stayed with me for decades and is still my favorite programming language.

A bit later: C, Pascal, C++ and a little bit of Java.

Successfully avoided: RPL ;-)
