Another Custom Bullet Company

Fortran here too, but way, way later than y'all.
Guy in my class was a C++ programmer on the local Base, but they did enough heavy crunching that they called Fortran subs for the efficiency of it.
Instructor wrote a Fortran program that was a Fractal screen saver.
What was this thread about?
Custom Bullet Company...I sidetracked....
 
It was 1980, small college in Denver, remember buying the "FORTRAN" coding paper, then punching the cards and drawing a diagonal line on the edge. We turn them in by Friday, school turned them in to the State or maybe State University in Denver and got results back on Monday. We were told it was FORTRAN IV. Back then you had FORTRAN, COBOL and some version of BASIC if I recall. Diefferent School we had FORTRAN 77 (UCSD version?) in early 90's and yet another school, FORTRAN 95 (Windows version) later.
First degree Electrical, MS in Petroleum, saw all the garden spots, winter in ND and Siberia, summer in Arabian, Saharan and Gobi Deserts. I wouldn't change a thing.
Had FORTRAN 4 in High school in 73 as a senior and Gardner Denver in town would run the cards for us at night. I forgot it all, became a machinist instead!
