   My first exposure was paper  tape. I typed in my program one week, left   
   it, and it came back the next with syntax errors.   
   I treble checked it and could see none.   
   I resubmitted it and the next week it ran,. Well sort of. there was a   
   software bug ,   
   I gave up completely on computers until they turned up with keyboards   
   screens and floppy disks.
