Next week, I will begin teaching a FORTRAN Programming Course to
Engineering Students. This is the second time I will be teaching this
particular course. I wanted to tap into the expertise of this newsgroup
and obtain some example applications for which FORTRAN is being utilized
these days.
It has been about eight years since I last used FORTRAN in my day
to day work. At that time, FORTRAN was still a very popular language for
general applications. It seems as if C has taken that role over from
FORTRAN over the course of the last decade. It is my impression that
this has left FORTRAN to the domain of scientific and engineering applications
for which C is not suitable.
If you are working on or know of a unique application for which
FORTRAN is being utilized, I would appreciate it if you could e-mail me
a brief description. I want to use a few examples for the intro lecture
on FORTRAN as examples of its use in modern times.
Thanks,
George
