Description


The author's own software simulation of EDSAC positioned him to practice machine language coding and debugging while electronic text messaging with a rules-based fantasy world back and forth via the command line. Boil down the modern arts and contemporary fruits of computer programming and really nothing has changed since 1949-1953. It is what it is. Read these nine complete stand-alone application programs resulting from the author's intimate unmediated machine language relationship with the 0's and 1's of the world's first practical stored program computer.
