How to use this tool?

This free online converter lets you convert code from Lisp to Fortran in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Lisp code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting Fortran code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Lisp to Fortran using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.

Example 1 - Is String Palindrome

Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Lisp and Fortran

CharacteristicLispFortran
SyntaxLisp has a unique syntax that uses a lot of parentheses and prefix notation, which can be difficult for beginners to understand.Fortran has a more traditional syntax that uses infix notation and is easier for beginners to understand.
ParadigmLisp is a functional programming language that emphasizes the use of functions and recursion.Fortran is a procedural programming language that emphasizes the use of subroutines and loops.
TypingLisp is dynamically typed, which means that variable types are determined at runtime.Fortran is statically typed, which means that variable types are determined at compile time.
PerformanceLisp is generally slower than Fortran due to its dynamic typing and garbage collection.Fortran is generally faster than Lisp due to its static typing and optimized compilers.
Libraries and frameworksLisp has a smaller community and fewer libraries and frameworks compared to Fortran.Fortran has a larger community and more libraries and frameworks compared to Lisp.
Community and supportLisp has a smaller community and less support compared to Fortran.Fortran has a larger community and more support compared to Lisp.
Learning curveLisp has a steep learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming paradigm.Fortran has a moderate learning curve due to its more traditional syntax and procedural programming paradigm.
