[comp.lang.fortran] What should I do?

mdoerner@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu (Mike R Doerner) (05/01/91)

  I am currently enrolled at osu, and am beginning my f77 engineering
graphics program. I ahve several questions about "Extended Fortran."

       1). Will the majority of my commands in f77 go to waste when the
new version becomes industry standard.

       2). Will this standard be ready by 1995? If so, should I take
supplimental courses in f-90 to become familiar with the language?

       3). Or should I just learn Pascal or C instead (ouch!)

      ...any response would be appreciated...
