[plug] Programming Languages

[Rob Dunne]

hi,
    
Pacific-Sierra Research offer 
a "Personal Linux f90 Version"  ( http://www.psrv.com/lnxf90.html )
ie private use only  also there are several commercial f90 
compilers available for linux
on  x86 machine but only one (I think) for alpha machines.
But if you dont need backward compatability with f77 then 
the "F" compiler from  http://www.imagine1.com/ is ofen recommended
(I havnt used it). 

I really I think we need to know what sort of programming 
is being considered -- but if it uses arrays then it is a good 
idea to consder fortran. 
                     bye

No, not intentional. But then I cound not follow all the 
debate about  "Reply To" that went on in this list a while ago.
