It’s a pretty saturday morning and I am in very jolly mood. Thought I’d share some joy ;-)
In 1959, there was COBOL
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
ADD YEARS TO AGE. MULTIPLY PRICE BY QUANTITY GIVING COST. SUBTRACT DISCOUNT FROM COST GIVING FINAL-COST. MULTIPLY B BY B GIVING B-SQUARED. MULTIPLY 4 BY A GIVING FOUR-A. MULTIPLY FOUR-A BY C GIVING FOUR-A-C. SUBTRACT FOUR-A-C FROM B-SQUARED GIVING RESULT-1. COMPUTE RESULT-2 = RESULT-1 ** .5. SUBTRACT B FROM RESULT-2 GIVING NUMERATOR. MULTIPLY 2 BY A GIVING DENOMINATOR. DIVIDE NUMERATOR BY DENOMINATOR GIVING X. |
And almost 50 years later, it resurrected !
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
Scenario: savings account has insufficient funds Given my savings account balance is $50 And my checking account balance is $10 When I transfer $60 from savings to checking Then my savings account balance should be $50 And my checking account balance should be $10 |
I know history repeats itself. I just wish it wouldn’t have done it in English !
