I forgot assembler. I may have forgotten it because after 2 classes that required programming in it I developed a nervous tick. LOL

I used to work for First Interstate Bank (now Wells Fargo, I think). Years ago I wrote an IMS Assembler program for the Time Deposit System. The tellers used telephones to enter the transactions. A "WaveTek" computer would translaste it into machine language and my program would update the IMS database with the transaction.

Those were the Fun days of programming.

A few months sgo I pulled an old hard copy of a class program project in assemble. All it was was looking for data in a dump and I could not figure it out. I was so depressed. I thought I would always be able to do that in my sleep up until the day I died.
