Re: Real programmers don't write in FORTRAN. FORTRAN is for pipe stress freaks and crystallography weenies. SAYS MY Tk4- COOKIE JAR
Since everyone seems to be waxing nostalgic about their programming experience these days, here's my contribution: I started learning Fortan in 1967, which ran on the campus's IBM 7040 mainframe.

Re: revisiting SYSGEN in Z world
Mike; I think it will default to my old system catalog not to the one I created on the empty volume SY2KB. IEF376I? JOB/TWO$70? /STOP? 2020333.1151 CPU??? 0MIN 00.16SEC SRB??? 0MIN

Not needed. If you didn't created a matching alias the default is the master catalog. <rahimazizarab@...> wrote:

Re: Hercules, MVS speed.
Hi Carlos, The 360 Mod 40 was rated at about 125,000 instructions per second or 125KPS. I would expect your 64 bit 3G processor to deliver around 60,000,000 instructions per second or 60MIPS. That is

revisiting SYSGEN in Z world
I ran the JCL to create an IPL volume and it went flawlessly.? Then I created my Master catalog which went fine too; but when it came time to allocate my system datasets (SYS1) under my newly created

May be then I should use a Virtual Machine running windows with a slower clock and use h390 on it

I had many favorites over the years.? Fortran IV was the first.? That then shifted for SPS (IBM 1620 assembler) and then to BAL (S/360).? PL/I was lurking in the background before it finally

Hi everyone, I'm testing sort routines (IHESRTA), in PL/I. Even with modest 25 K and only one WORK disk, speed is blazing fast to sort 32K 190 byte registers, less than a second, compliation and

Apart from some playing at Kingston Polytechnic after school, I started with PL/1 and assembly under VM/SP, then assembly, 3270 datastreams, PL/1, VSAM, IMS, and all the usual under MVS, and then MVS

Started in 1971 with writing COBOL. I was a few years an application programmer, but systems programming had my attention. So I became a systems programmer. My first job was replace OS/VS2 SVS by MVS.

Being a microcontroller programmer, I'm very close to assembly, and it's bit byte and interrupts management, but I prefer using C, which in turn is very close to assembly, if you use properly. Of

+1, that is a true statement. Cussing the machine is the one thing we programmers all have in common. But in response to the original question, I think there is no need for a ¡°favorite¡± language.
