How I Learned to Program circa 1978
Just for fun, here's a vintage photo of what it was like learning to program in BASIC back in 1978.
Spend a couple hours punching in one line of code per card. Hand the stack of cards to the person at the counter (you didn't actually think you got to operate the computer yourself, did you?). Get the print out of your program a couple of hours later. Easy peasy!

Why couldn't I have seen something like this 10 years ago, before I got old? LOL
