I learned FORTRAN on an IBM 1401. Our intro chemistry professor thought it was a good idea to incorporate IBM's FORTRAN programming coursework into our chemistry lab. I wasn't so good at chemistry but excelled in programming and so earned a decent chem grade. In the years that followed I used the FORTRAN for numerical analysis classes. It all led to a career in programming.
