I was searching my junior colleges network folders (which are open to college students) and found a copy of Borland C++ from the 1990's for DOS. Doing some further research, I found that this copy of Borland C++ was being used seriously for in-class lectures for a C++ introduction course. Here's a sample file of one of the courses solutions:
