Nope, got that beat. I'll be 66 on Sunday. First code in 1970 in a
freshman Fortran class at ASU, but really learned logic as an aircraft
mechanic at age 18 in the Air Force. If you had a problem on the
aircraft that you didn't know about, you used decision logic tables or
problem solution charts to find the symptoms and search for solutions.
Just a big nested if else statement.
