Key differences between Fortran and Oberon+
| Characteristic | Fortran | Oberon+ |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Uses a verbose, older syntax with fixed or free-form source code; designed for mathematical and scientific computation. | Has a concise, modern, and minimalistic syntax derived from Pascal and Modula-2, emphasizing readability and simplicity. |
| Paradigm | Primarily procedural, with some support for object-oriented programming in modern versions. | Supports both procedural and object-oriented paradigms, with a focus on modular programming. |
| Typing | Statically typed with explicit type declarations; type safety has improved in recent standards. | Statically and strongly typed, with strict type checking and type safety as a core design principle. |
| Performance | Highly optimized for numerical and scientific computing; often delivers top performance for array and matrix operations. | Efficient for general-purpose and systems programming, but not as heavily optimized for numerical tasks as Fortran. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Rich ecosystem for scientific, engineering, and numerical libraries; limited general-purpose libraries. | Limited library and framework support; fewer third-party libraries compared to Fortran. |
| Community and support | Large, established community in scientific and engineering fields; extensive legacy code and resources. | Small, niche community with limited support and fewer active contributors. |
| Learning curve | Moderate to steep, especially for modern features; older syntax can be challenging for beginners. | Gentle learning curve due to minimalistic design and clear syntax, but limited resources may hinder self-study. |
