I learnt COBOL (I'm old) it's a very easy language, you basically talk, for instance to do c=a*b you write:
MULTIPLY A TO B GIVING C
and everything is tabbed, but in a good editor like emacs, it's done automatically pretty well.
That's how you talk?
you shout in COBOL ;-)
shout shout let it all out
These are the things I can do without: =+-*/
