“....You don’t “code up” data in FORTRAN. ....”
YES I KNOW THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn’t feel like writing a technical treatise as a reference work to my question!
I am trying to figure out what these “Significant Figures Did”?
And in my undergraduate days I had to digitize graphs by hand as far as I was concerned I was “coding it up”! I also had to get into the main frame a U-Haul of punch cards XFS data. Again as far as I was concerned I was “coding it up”!
So what did these people do that I should genuflect toward them?
I just want my question answered!
"Coder", when used as slang for a programmer, is one of my pet peeves. Sorry to trigger one of yours.
