The IBM 1401 compiles and runs FORTRAN II
推荐理由
A computer from 1959 (IBM 1401) at the Computer History Museum, compiling FORTRAN.
说明
这是2018年由CuriousMarc发布的一部演示,主题归在History of computing。它讲的是vintage mainframe computing这一支里的具体问题,而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合已经能看懂基本术语、想继续往下走的人。内容上可以概括成:CuriousMarc and colleagues at the Computer History Museum try to compile and run a FORTRAN II program on a 1959 IBM 1401. The machine has only 16k of memory and a CPU not meant for scientific work, so success is far from guaranteed.这些读者给出的理由,核心是:Passed around in computing-history threads as a charming example of vintage hardware being coaxed into running FORTRAN.讲法不绑某一条新闻,过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2018年到2021年,有2位不同的读者在2个不同月份把它推荐出来,其中明确叫别人去看的有0次。适合先看结果再决定要不要深挖的人。先看它做成了什么。如果已经会了基本定义,就把注意力放在它怎么把vintage mainframe computing变成能跟着复述的例子。
