Talk:GEORGE (programming language)

Origin and evolution of George
According to David A. Mindell, a professor at MIT, GEORGE was written by Hal Laning, an engineer at MIT's Instrument Laboratory. Laning writes in his 2008 book DIGITAL APOLLO (MIT Press) that Laning's creation lent its important equation handling concepts to FORTRAN. Can someone help resolve the discrepancy?

This seems to be identical to the programming language named Forth, attributed to and designed by Moore_(Forth) - I don't know enough history to establish this, but the resemblamce is striking, and as a long-time user of Forth, I am surprised that ther eis no mention of Forth in either the text below or on the talk page. Fascinating! 50.163.162.160 (talk)‎ 12:21, 22 July 2015‎
