This politically incorrect one is going to lose me the precious few female followers left on my channel. But for the good of academic research, we were asked to run the program "Edith" on the vintage 1959 IBM mainframe at the computer history museum. Which goes on to prove that the more technology evolves, the more things stay the same. And I forgot how to pronounce the alphabet in German.
Original code and IBM 1401 emulator to run it can be found on my website:
