[QUOTE="eshaw, post: 451636, member: 22134"] I remember when I was going to college I had a class in Numerical Control. That is the name they gave the programming that was done with our mills, lathes and other machinery. That was all done with punched tape. The initial programs were done with paper but you had to be very careful about it getting around oil because it would make the paper translucent and the light reader would go skitzoid trying to read it! Those machines did some pretty interesting things when that happened. Actually, I think it's kind of sad that todays generation can't do simple math functions without a calculator. [/QUOTE]
