What's the oldest programming language you've used?

The oldest ones I have used are FORTRAN, 6502 machine code, and Commodore BASIC.

Probably BASIC, but only on Replit.

C++

I mean - I have used BASIC in QBASIC, which is like an IDE but ok.

C, JavaScript and Python as well.

selfexplanatory

qbasic on a windows 3.1 virtual machine

Geotale

C, probably. That was made before even the first Z80 CPUs were being made…

HTML isn't even a programming language, it's a markup language.
