Question

[MAD_DOG]

My buddy of mine told me he knows this old guy who used to program anywho he told me it was a very old programming language. He said it started with a D

Cobol is a old one right?

Anywho can you name some old programming languages?

[samaru]

Can't think of any language that's been that old that starts with a "D", except Delphi, but Delphi is not that old. Ironic enough, there's a language called "D".

If you want a list of languages and links about them, I recommend you check out this url:

[samaru]

Cobol.... yuck :P

[aeinstein]

LOL! wasnt COBOL 1 of the hot-tickets according to the url u posted on jobs?! ;)

[samaru]

Yes, I think so, but that's because old systems were written in it, and you have no other choice. Newer systems don't use it anymore and many are migrating to newer versions.
