I had a little crisis at 12 when I went from BASIC to Pascal: how was that supposed to work without line numbers? The statements were just floating around without structure!

I spent two years on hn just to read this comment. So true!

After all these decades, I finally learned that I wasn't the only one who struggled with line numbers from BASIC to Pascal. Thanks, buddy!
