This is Awesome.
For my high school graduation project, I wrote a full COBOL system to automate soccer betting odds. Long past its prime, but my school hadn’t quite caught up with the times.
It was hilariously out of place, but I loved every line of it. There’s something oddly satisfying about a language that whispers, “Remember punched cards?” as you type.
It's really type resonant that you used COBOL (IN ALL CAPS) for your high school project. Makes for good high school memorabilia. I hope you used Greek gods for all of your variable names.
