Generate some
digits of pi...
That's a good idea. That way I can use the full
"power" of the FORTRAN

I could
write a converter program. The same task in VHDL on a FPGA was
my task at the university last week!

Yes. Hello world says
hello world and asks for name, does this and that.
I'm looking for some impressive and easy to implement toys.
