    Welcome to the early 1970s.  :-)  Write your FORTRAN program down on coding forms:

Or, as happened for one of my final exams in college, the professor takes the coding forms, photocopies them, and gives you back the originals. Then you have to go make the program work. You lose 1/4 point per character you have to change up to a maximum of 2 points per line up to a maximum of 50 points for the whole program. An interesting experience... BLS
