Programming Robots w/Punch Cards?

I've been working on a pulp setting and want to include robots (the idea of a depression with people losing their jobs and companies laying off workers with robots can make for some interesting ideas, but anyway...) I was thinking of having the robots "programmed" via punch cards, they're not AI but it can seem like it some times...How well would such a situation be? Would it be possible to do some kind of data storage as well for multiple programs?
