I used algoll6 0 when I was in High school in the 70's .

It was a nice procedural language. Better than basic for writing lage programs.

The Algols eventually led to ADA.

In College I was exposed to PLM and C.

C and C++ are where I spent most of my acrrer coding.

I worked on an airplane that had a mysterious HUD blanking issue.

It was eventually traced to a missing & in a C statement. Resulting in a bit wise comparison instead of Boolean comparison of values.

It was found using a datarecorder I designed and playing the data back into a HUD om the ground.
