Ouchless I/O
T. E. Bailey · ACM SIGCSE Bulletin · 1972
The teaching of FORTRAN I/O in a beginning computer programming course at Oklahoma State University has been totally integrated into the course in order to overcome the boredom and unpleasantness that students may experience when I/O is presented in a single block. Presenting the material in this manner has allowed students to handle rather sophisticated I/O early in the course with minimal difficulty.
