Fortran edit

There was also a Fortran II compiler. It had at least two passes, each loaded from paper tape. The compiled code ran at the speed of molasses in winter when doing floating point. This is from personal recollection of messing about with it in high school. A number of web pages also mention Fortran II on the Monrobot, but I'm not sure which, if any, of them would b considered reliable secondary sources for Wikipedia purposes. --Gambaguru (talk) 21:38, 13 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
