In my engineering career I used many computer languages, including some that few folks know of today. E.g., APL, FORTH, LISP, SNOBOL4, and VHDL. Of all the languages I used, I enjoyed SNOBOL4 the most. It works the way I think. A couple of years ago I got it running on my MacBook. Since then I’ve spent a couple of hours most days writing programs that are useful, or fun, for me. I enjoy those programming sessions so much. Serious about crackers | |||

I would like to argue, but I haven’t paid. Demand not that events should happen as you wish; but wish them to happen as they do happen, and you will go on well. -Epictetus | |||

There are a bunch of free Python books where the author has put them out for free download, or one can buy the paper version. There are some good classes through Pluralsight where you could try them out free for a month or so. | |||

Well, you also know the industry that I need the scheduling and invoicing to work for.  I'm volunteering you for lead on this project.  | |||

Good luck. I programmed in COBOL for 31 years and refused to learn anything newer. The company I retired from in 2006 is still running some of my old code. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

Cobol was great for its time. Python is great for small projects, but it's a small player in large enterprise suites. But if you want a general purpose utility development tool, Python is hard to beat, and one of my favorites of all time. Lover of the US Constitution Wile E. Coyote School of DIY Disaster | |||

Yeah, I just disregard that as being his politics. I was just agreeing that coding controls information and controlling information is power which is the purview of politics. Wherever I may find truth, I just hold on to it and ignore the chaff. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||
