Just for interest really - the Honeywell H316 was a 16kword by 16 bit machine with core storage, paper tape I/O and a printer. No disks! No mag tapes! This is not, so far as I'm aware, a very-multi-pass Fortran compiler https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxVbRz6udmI More general info on the machine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeywell_316 A bit of a backgrounder on the 1950's invention and introduction of Fortran: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KohboWwrsXg "An account of the development of FORTRAN by those who did it." (including the difficulty of believing a machine could produce code nearly as well as a person could) |
