Key differences between Fortran and Nim
| Characteristic | Fortran | Nim |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Older, verbose, and rigid syntax, especially in legacy versions; modern Fortran is more readable but still less expressive than many newer languages. | Modern, Python-like, clean, and highly readable syntax with significant whitespace and flexible constructs. |
| Paradigm | Primarily procedural, with some support for object-oriented and parallel programming in modern versions. | Multi-paradigm: supports procedural, object-oriented, functional, and metaprogramming. |
| Typing | Statically typed with explicit type declarations; strong typing but less flexible type system. | Statically typed with type inference; strong and expressive type system. |
| Performance | Renowned for high performance in numerical and scientific computing; highly optimized compilers. | Very high performance, often comparable to C/C++, but generally not as optimized for scientific computing as Fortran. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Rich ecosystem for scientific, engineering, and numerical libraries; limited general-purpose libraries. | Growing standard library and third-party ecosystem; less mature than Fortran for scientific computing but broader for general-purpose programming. |
| Community and support | Long-established, specialized community focused on scientific and engineering domains; less active in general programming. | Smaller but active and growing community; more general-purpose focus and modern online presence. |
| Learning curve | Steep for beginners, especially with legacy code; easier for those with scientific backgrounds. | Gentle learning curve due to modern syntax and clear documentation; accessible to beginners and experienced programmers alike. |
