The IBM 1401 compiles and runs FORTRAN II

We attempt to compile and run a simple FORTRAN program on our vintage 1959 IBM mainframe computer at the Computer History Museum. FORTRAN is a big stretch for this business oriented machine, with 16k memory and a CPU not meant at all for scientific applications. Even integer multiply and divide instructions are an optional feature on the base machine! Success not guaranteed. • Come see the IBM 1401 computer at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California, USA: • https://computerhistory.org/exhibits/... • Simulation and programming environment available here: https://github.com/lucaseverini/ROPE. • Mike Albaugh has made a page that explains how to run the same demonstration in the SIMH simulation: http://nulli.us/f1401/package.html • Some pointers on how to start programming the IBM 1401 on my website (work in progress): https://www.curiousmarc.com/computing... • Details on this implementation of FORTRAN: http://ibm-1401.info/1401-IBM-Systems... • IBM 1401 FORTRAN compiler source code: http://ibm-1401.info/1401-FORTRAN-Ill... • E-mail exchanges with the original developers of the IBM 1401 FORTRAN: http://ibm-1401.info/FORTRAN-e-mails.... • Official CHM IBM 1401 Video: • 1401: The Dawn of a New Era • More CuriousMarc IBM 1401 videos: • Debugging the 1959 IBM 729 Vacuum Col... • Our sponsor for PCBs: https://www.pcbway.com • Support the team on Patreon: / curiousmarc • Merch on Teespring: https://teespring.com/stores/curiousm... • Learn more on companion site: https://www.curiousmarc.com • Contact info: https://www.youtube.com/curiousmarc/a...
