      Yes, it's the same with LISP! I'm 26 years old and I learned LISP and COBOL at university. Everyone told me "don't do it" for a lot of stupid reasons with no arguments. Today, most of the people I work with are close to retirement, so in a few years I'll probably be the only one in my company who can understand how our business logic works. I'll (almost) literally be the only person who can work on the oldest and most specific projects still in use today. The company I'm currently working for has understood this, and they pay me a lot more than my manager, because if I leave, there'll be nobody left to write COBOL programs. They try to recruit young people, but nobody wants to do COBOL :/

      @@BlueDippy Many companies use Java alongside mainframe services. It's not a necessity, but knowing how to use Java is a serious advantage. It all depends on the company and its needs.
      For example, in my company, we have Cloud services that require Java developers with basic knowledge of COBOL and mainframe. Some of our developers only do COBOL and are mainly assigned to the maintenance of historical services. They develop almost nothing in COBOL because we try to reduce the addition of COBOL code to our services. Personally, my position requires the use of COBOL, Java, C, ASM and LISP.

    I taught myself BASIC on a Commodore Vic 20. When I got my programming degree in 1987, the primary language was COBOL, because the main employer in the area was state government, and they all had IBM mainframes. COBOL was pretty universal. IBM had only released their first PC a couple of years before. I coded in COBOL until 2001, when I was offered a chance to transition to Windows Server applications programming in VB6. That was great, but when we transitioned to C#, it was even better. That's what I coded in until I retired in 2016.
    But I actually liked COBOL. It was great for batch programming and OLTP. It was quite procedural, but later, after I left COBOL, IBM created a version that had objective features. I never used it, but I suspect it might have been interesting.

    VBA is _awesome._ It interacts with Excel and with the operating system _flawlessly._ It is also easy to read and understand. VBScript also interacts with the operating system and, you can declare the proper object to interact with any application that chooses to support that interaction. You can rag on VB and it's derivatives, but they work flawlessly with Windows and that means the vast majority of business computers.

    • @0x5D
      @0x5D ปีที่แล้ว +1

      CISC architectures from the 70s and 80s can actually be quite fun to write asm for, because those instruction sets were designed when microprocessors were slow and it was common for programmers to write asm, so they have useful instructions, flags, and addressing modes to make programming in asm by hand easier. Memory was expensive so it was important to get things done in as few bytes as possible.
      x86 is (sadly, imo) the only one of these architectures that's survived to continued relevance in PCs today.
      Nowadays memory is cheap, CPUs are fast, and most code is in high level languages with smart compilers, and the design of modern RISC instruction sets reflects this. Power efficiency and instructions per cycle, rather than byte count, is king. The instruction sets are optimized for the compilers rather than human programmers. So they're naturally indeed quite painful to have to program in asm yourself. Especially the early ones that had crap like branch delay slots.

    Funny to see COBOL in this list.
    I just started learning and working with COBOL, though most of our work is done with CA2E (Synon), CA2E generates basic templates depending on the type of function you want to create and has user points where you can add your own code.
    It’s actually pretty simple once you get the hang of and it does at lot of the coding for you.

    I like Matlab when I want to build my own applications from scratch that involve DE+ math. I actually didn't get python past security for over a year at my current job (manufacturing) and was stuck with VBA the entire time. If you're forced to spend enough time with it and are willing to write 99% of your own functions, there are workarounds for a lot of it's limitations, and existing within something visual makes distributing it to others who don't have technical knowledge very fast and easy. I have so much written in it now that I'll often end up calling python via the terminal, check memory for execution status manually, and continue in VBA once the output has been somehow hacked back into it. Hopefully I can migrate to an environment that has less security restrictions. Tip to anyone who ever learns/deals with excel and doesn't already code: do all of the math in VBA using arrays, never read/write using cells unless it's at the very beginning or very end of your code, and don't iterate while doing it. Anyway, thanks, Lewis. I'll use this as a list for the next few languages to learn.
