FORTRAN
FORTRAN is the oldest high-level language stilling widespread use today. It is popular in the scientific community, having libraries of mathematical subgroup-tines, and is also often chosen for its portability. New standards are developed for the language every few years，with FORTRAN77 being shortly superseded。
FORTRAN allows independent compilation：Program comprises a main program and possibly other program units, which may be subroutines, functions or 'blocks' for data initialization。
FORTRAN has an archaic syntax ．but will continue to be used in solving mathematical problems because of the body of experience in such use and the extensive library of routines available．It is also stronger than PASCAL on input-output. However it may be superseded by Adam when there are a sufficient number of implementations of Adam to give comparable portability, and when the libraries have been translated. Thus there may be little point in going beyond FORTRAN77 in standardization.

FORTRAN語(yǔ)言
FORTRA語(yǔ)言是目前仍在廣泛 應(yīng)用的最古老的高級(jí)語(yǔ)言。它在科 學(xué)界很普及，它具有許多數(shù)學(xué)子程序庫(kù)，由于它的可移植性，所以它 經(jīng)常被人們選用。每過(guò)幾年，人們 就為該語(yǔ)言推出新的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)， FORTRAN77近期將被取代。
FORTRAN允許獨(dú)立編譯：一個(gè)程序包含一個(gè)主程序，可能還包含其他幾個(gè)程序單元，它們可能是例行子程序。函數(shù)或數(shù)據(jù)初始化用的“程序塊”。
FORTRAN具有古體語(yǔ)法，但它將繼續(xù)被用來(lái)解決數(shù)學(xué)問(wèn)題，這是因?yàn)樵谶@方面的應(yīng)用中有許多經(jīng)驗(yàn)主體和廣泛應(yīng)用的程序庫(kù)。在輸入輸出方面，它也比PASCAL強(qiáng)。但是，當(dāng)Ada語(yǔ)言中具有足夠的實(shí)現(xiàn)手段以便具有可與FORTRAN比擬的可移植性時(shí)，以及當(dāng)FORTRAN程序庫(kù)已被翻譯好時(shí)，F(xiàn)ORTRAN可以被Ada所代替。所以在標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化方面，很少會(huì)有超過(guò)FORTRAN77的。
