FORTRAN
http://schutt.org/ blog/ 2008/ 05/ fortran/FORTRAN In college, before video games, we would amuse ourselves by posing programming exercises. One of the favorites was to write the shortest self-reproducing program. Since this is an exercise divorced from reality, the usual vehicle was FORTRAN.

Writing FORTRAN in Any Language
http://www.matthewsworkbench.com/ writing-fortran-in-any-language/If you’ve never heard the expression, it refers to the practice of carrying programming habits to a new context, even when they are inappropriate. Some programmers who began with FORTRAN continued to write programs that strongly resembled FORTRAN after they had moved to other languages.

Doctor, it hurts when I do this!
http://softwareblogs.intel.com/ 2008/ 03/ 31/ doctor-it-hurts-when-i-do-this/It is often said that you can write bad code in any language, and I certainly can't argue with that. I do find, though, that the worst-looking code comes from programmers who are more familiar with another programming language.

Fortran information
http://satty08.edublogs.org/ 2008/ 03/ 02/ fortran-information/Discuss the history of Fortran! The first FORTRAN compiler was a milestone in the history of computing, at that time computers had very small memories (on the order of 15KB, it was common then to count memory capacities in bits), they were slow and had very primitive operating systems (if they had them at all).

Lisa Awards: Most Format Restrictive Language
http://almaer.com/ blog/ lisa-awards-most-format-restrictive-languageFortran pre-90 was very restrictive. There is the magic of column one, the line numbers, etc. The original Fortran was written for the IBM 704 and you programmed it on punch cards which is why the restrictions were in place. Before Fortran, most of the community were coding using assembler, and Fortran was a factor of 20 more concise.
