Greetings fellow traveler, I did the same. FORTRAN IV, I was tasked with finding a way to introduce subroutines. But it was a tangled mess of gotos with loops inside loops and overlapping loops and spectacular jumps in and out. It was an obscure undocumented algorithm for calculating the thermodynamic properties of turbine stages or some such.

Good times.
