A high-level programming language developed in the 1950s for scientific, engineering and numerical computation
high-level programming language (Computers)
Procedural computer programming language developed for numerical analysis by John W. Backus and others at IBM in 1957. The name derives from FORmula TRANslation. For many years it was the most widely used high-level language for scientific and engineering computations. Though other languages, such as various versions of C, are now popular for such uses, FORTRAN is still the language of choice for numerical analysis. It has been revised several times and now includes capabilities for handling structured data, dynamic ("on-the-fly") data allocation, recursions (procedures that call themselves), and other features
This stands for FORmula TRANslation, the oldest high-level programming language, designed for IBM in the late 1950s Despite its age, it's still popular today, especially for scientific applications that need more extensive mathematical computations
FORmula TRANslating language: An old but still very common programming language used in the scientific field FORTRAN was the first high-level language to become widely used See Programming Languages at the ACCC
An acronym for formula translation
FORmula TRANslator: A computer programming language for problems that can be expressed in algebraic terms (scientific and business applications)
Acronym for FORmula TRANslator, which is a high level computer language used extensively in scientific and engineering applications
Acronym for Formula Transformation An early high-level scientific computer language used on both mainframes and microcomputers Now obsolete
What is Fortran, and where can I learn more about it?
FORmula TRANslator FORTRAN is a programming language invented in the 1950s for scientific and technical computing It excels at mathematical operations and is still used today
Fortran: Acronym for FORmula TRANslator, one of the oldest high-level programming languages but one that is still widely used in scientific computing because of its compact notation for equations, ease in handling large arrays, and huge selection of library routines for solving mathematical problems efficiently Fortran 77 and Fortran 90 are the two standards currently in use HPF is a set of extensions to Fortran that support parallel programming Fortran compilers available at CTC are from Compaq, PGI, and Gnu
Stands for FORmula TRANslation
Formula Translation language A widely used high-level programming language well suited to problems that can be expressed in terms of algebraic formulas It is generally used in scientific applications
Formula translation A high-level programming language, most widely used for scientific and engineering applications because it has excellent mathematical functions Many programmers consider it to sacrifice "elegance" for speed of numerical manipulations
  See  language processor
a high-level programing language for mathematical and scientific purposes; stands for formula translation
"FORmula TRANslator" A computer programming language typically used for scientific programs Standardized as ANSI FORTRAN 77 (1977) and ANSI FORTRAN 90 (1990)
Formula Translator (BAS)
– (1) Third generation programming language used primarily to write scientific and mathematical application software (2) Acronym of FORmula TRANslator
An older, high-level programming language once used for science
FORTRAN stands for formula translation and is the oldest computer language in the world It is typically compiled and is quite fast Its primary drawbacks are portability and ease-of-use -- often different FORTRAN compilers on different platforms behave quite differently in spite of standardization efforts in 1966 (FORTRAN 66 or FORTRAN IV), 1978 (FORTRAN 77), and 1991 (FORTRAN 90) Today languages like C and Java are more popular, but FORTRAN is still heavily used in military software It is somewhat amusing to note that when FORTRAN was first released back in 1958 its advocates thought that it would mean the end of software bugs In truth of course by making the creation of more complex software practical, computer languages have merely created new types of software bugs
FORmula TRANslator
The first high level language, introduced in 1954 by IBM; it is scientifically oriented
A science-oriented high-level software language, derived from the contraction of the terms FORmula TRANslator
(Formula Translator) Developed by IBM in the late 1950s, one of the first high-level program languages, used primarily for scientific calculations, which remains in use today
Acronym for FORmula TRANslator, one of the oldest high-level programming languages but one that is still widely used in scientific computing because of its compact notation for equations, ease in handling large arrays, and huge selection of library routines for solving mathematical problems efficiently Fortran 77 and Fortran 90 are the two standards currently in use On AIX systems, the Fortran compiler is called XL Fortran or xlf; on other UNIX systems, the Fortran compiler is often called f77 HPF is a set of extensions to Fortran that support parallel programming
A high-level programming language and compiler originally designed to express math formulas Developed in 1954 by IBM it is still the most widely used language for scientific and engineering programming
