Yea, it was old VAX FORTRAN. Good exercise in thinking about creating algorithms to model things in the real world and what-not, but the idiosynchracies of the language were HORRIBLY cumbersome - all throw-backs to the old punch-card format (you could see how it directly translated into a lot of the requirements). It was interesting, but it takes someone with a certain kind of neural wiring to get into computer programming. I left those courses quite solidly convinced that I wasn't one of those people. No matter how much I tried or how conceptually interesting the stuff was, I just could NOT bring myself to like coding. At all.
