Fortran!!! Whoo Hoo!!! A MAN’S language.
Those who hate the printf and variants in other languages can thank Fortran for FORMAT statements.
And one of that sissy WatFor either!!

You would think with all these super-fast computers, cancer would be cured by now, all crimes would be solved, and they can predict earthquakes before they happen, and predict extreme weather sooner.
The old mantra still applies....Garbage in—>into faster computer—>garbage out faster.

I used Fortran for 23 years, then came along dbase 5. If I had dbase 23 years sooner I could have developed more expert software for custom designed 1000 HP machines, in half the time.

The question is, when will someone invent the unhackable computer immune to any and all malware/virus etc.?

The main feature dBase has over Fortran is ability to load data much more easily in data files, and ability to massage the data manually without having to write an executable.
Every time I modified data in a Fortran program, I had to RECOMPLILE the entire program! In dBase I could delete or add data without having to recompile.

Just imagine how fast it will bounce the cards in Solitaire! Oh wait. It is apparently only designed for real operating systems...
The whole shebang runs Linux, with a Lustre-based distributed file system and non-volatile memory for accelerating file input-output. The toolchain supports C, C++ and Fortran compilers, MPI, OpenMP, debuggers, and other utilities and languages.
Seriously though, this looks really freaking interesting.

20 year COBOL developer.
I remember that. Just like storing data in binary or packed format to save storage.
Interpretive languages are great — but sadly when they don’t require strong typing developers get lazy.
I ALWAYS declare no matter what the language.
