COBOL was a wonderful language for it’s time. I started programming it on punch cards.

COBOL is actually a very simple language to use.?

Brilliant for its time.

Hopper was an amazing woman!

I was probably one of the last people to teach COBOL in my state. One of my schools was still teaching it 8-10 years ago.

I teach Python and C++ now. :-)
