I had to learn BASIC with the school’s HP 2100A in addition to learning FORTRAN on an IBM 360 to solve engineering homework in 1974. Later built a Sinclair ZX80 to learn assembly at home just for fun. Programming was just a chore to get the actual job done, which was to design and build plant equipment.
