by Dave Holt – Oxnard Press Courier (California) December 28, 1969 The demand for computer programmers is tremendous as business, industry, science, education and government all strive to reap technological benefits. There are few occupations, few scientific achievements and few personal lives left untouched or unchanged by the world of computers. ...
From The Miami News (Florida) September 20, 1964 FORTRAN — “formula translation” — in the leading method of feeding the machine information that it must have in order to figure out the problems given to it. The computer has a memory, like the human brain, except that the machine never forgets. The operator writes out the instructions and step-by-st...

John George Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz run the first program created in BASIC (Beginners’ All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code), an easy to learn high level programming language that will eventually be included on many computers and even some games consoles.
Simula, invented in the late 1960s by Nygaard and Dahl as a superset of ALGOL 60, was the first language designed to support object-oriented programming. FORTH , the earliest concatenative programming language was designed by Charles Moore in 1969 as a personal development system while at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO).
