If I gave that to any of the ops I know, they'd kill me on the spot :)

Subroutines are avoided. It's impossible to start in one, and lines like


O118 if [#104 LE [2*#102]]
            O119 if [#102 GT #116]
                #102 = [#104/2]
            O119 endif
        O118 endif

are totally meaningless unless you're a programmer.
