The "version history" of the German Wikipedia article shows that I added this ASSEMBLER source code in 2015. The page already existed, but there was no Mainframe example, which motivated me to add one. I thought some minutes about adding another source using the ASSEMBLER of the German Telefunken TR 440 mainframe of the 1970s (TAS = Telefunken Assembler Sprache), but I didn't succeed so far. That was the machine which impressed me most when I started my studies of computer science in 1977 at Stuttgart university.

The comments under the article which tell some facts about ASSEMBLER source code layout (columns 10 and 16 etc.)
have been added later by another Wikipedia author and are partly wrong.

This conversation motivated me to correct the comments ... we'll see how long it takes until my corrections are
verified by the Wikipedia people and online.

All in German ... sorry about that.

Kind regards

Maybe the program disqualifies because of the German comments?
But: this should be no problem for ChatGPT ... translation to english ...

What I meant to say:

it would have been better, if ChatGPT had used this (my) ASSEMBLER program from German Wikipedia ...
but apparently, it found the bad program from another source ???
Bill did not ask for a certain logic in his request; he simply asked for some mainframe Assembler program
(not specific). So my Hello World program would qualify, too.

It would be interesting to know how ChatGPT determines which sources are more reliable than others ...

Kind regards

FWIW:

ChatGPT could have used this ASSEMBLER program, which I posted some years ago to German Wikpedia ... this does not do the addition of two integers, but instead it is a simple Hello World program. In contrast to the program provided by ChatGPT,
it has no errors (I hope) and it will work.

It's kind of interesting to me that, while I try to answer repectfully
to your mails,
almost every answer from you contains the word "idiot" or "idiotic",
which is the same in German, so I understand that well.
Is that a specific way to support your arguments?

I find it stunning the technology people are trying to hang onto the past (assembler) and bashing the future. (ChatGPT) Or perhaps that’s what aging people do.
