FORTRAN is a third generation language.

Note: I don't know what these generations are, but I'm quite sure that Fortran is one of the oldest high-level programming languages, as are Cobol and Algol.

FORmula TRANslation

Fortran IV was a version of the Fortran programming language developed in the 1960's. It was widely accepted as a standard version of Fortran until the development of Fortran 66 which was itself largely based on Fortran iV.

fortran

BASIC and FORTRAN are computer programming languages.

23 years.

FORTRAN is an abbreviation for FORmula TRANslation. It is a computer programming language.

Mainly because there is no stack in Fortran 77.

The latest stable version of Fortran is Fortran 2008 (ISO/IEC 1539-1:2010). There are various implementations available, including open source. GFortran (part of GCC) is primarily based upon the much older Fortran 95 specification but includes most features of Fortran 2003 as well as partial support for Fortran 2008.

Yes. The FORTRAN write command output's data to a file.

formula translation

gfortran is a modern open-source compiler for Fortran, while Fortran 77 is an older version of the Fortran programming language. Some key differences include improved features and optimizations in gfortran, better compatibility with modern systems, and support for newer language standards beyond Fortran 77.

1. FORTRAN is automated for the scientific purpose only.

2. FORTRAN stands for formula translation.

3. FORTRAN allows the formula directly and perform the task.

4. Allows name and character in short form(06 characters).

5. Easy to program a very complex task.

6. FORTRAN does not allows any header or footer files.

which is the Compaq Visual Fortran Software latest version

The first FORTRAN compiler, an optimizing compiler, was delivered in April, 1957.

You are going to have to use the package manager to get a fortran compiler.

us the command something like this:

sudo apt-get install g77

or use synaptic and search for fortran.

Usually thought to mean "Formula Translation", FORTRAN is a blend word name for a software language and compiler whose original full name was "The IBM Mathematical Formula Translating System". The first FORTRAN compiler was released in April of 1957. In 1991, however, the connection to the original meaning was dropped. So from the Fortran 90 of then to the upcoming Fortran 2008, the name is spelled with only the first letter capitalized.

John Backus, who died March 17 of this year, led the team that developed Fortran at IBM in 1954.

The oldest computer language still in use is Fortran, invented in 1957. The first computer language was assembly language, but the first high level programming language was Plankalkul.

FORTRAN was an excellent computer software for engineering applications. Check with an engineering student or college or an engineering company.

Fortran is not a computer, it is a language. The letters stand for formula translator. It was developed by IBM in San Jose CA in the 1950's.

Not what did they program in Fortran, but what do they program in Fortran. Math. And lots of it. It is used in science and engineering applications for number crunching. It still is used, and in fact, it is the preferred language in finite element analysis programming and other work involving large amounts of calculation.

In general, C offers better performance in terms of speed compared to Fortran.

COBOL stands for Common Business Oriented Language and, as the name implies, is best applied in business and accounting type projects.

FORTRAN is primarily for scientific/engineering/mathematical problems. The name comes from 'Formula Translator.'

The FORTRAN that I worked with some 50 yrs ago in no way resembles the FORTRAN of today ... it evolves

I've been told that 500 yrs from now, engineers will still be using something called FORTRAN though it had evolved even more through time.

Yes.
