EPC Fortran 77 is a fully ANSI77 compatible, NIST validated, high quality, high performance compiler with excellent checking and diagnostic capabilities as well as an impressive range of VAX/VMS and Sun Fortran 77 extensions. EPC compilers are available for Intel 386/486, Motorola 68000 & 88000 and SPARC based systems running the major implementations of UNIX, including SunOS, UNIX V.2, V.3, V.4, SCO, Interactive and DYNIX. During the development of EPC Fortran 77 great emphasis was placed on fast comp- ilation and the provision of comprehensive diagnostic information. At compile- time over 300 informative error, warning and comment messages can be generated. At run-time checks can be applied to detect uninitialized variables and array bounds violations and there is an invaluable option to check the number and type of parameters in routine calls. In addition to all these features EPC Fortran 77 also produces highly optimised executable code. EPC Fortran 77 supports industry standard debuggers (such as sdb and dbx) and is fully integrated with the UNIX environment. EPC Fortran 77 generates standard object files and uses conventional calling sequences thus enabling convenient mixed language programming. All these facilities make EPC Fortran 77 an ideal tool for running existing app- lications, developing new programs and porting from non-UNIX environments. EPC compilers are competitively priced and discounts are available for educatio- nal establishments and bulk orders.
