Key differences between Zig and Fortran
| Characteristic | Zig | Fortran |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Modern, C-like, minimalistic, and designed for clarity and explicitness. | Older, more verbose, with syntax evolving from fixed-format (Fortran 77) to more modern free-form (Fortran 90+). |
| Paradigm | Imperative, procedural, with some support for generic programming. | Primarily procedural, with support for structured and, in newer versions, some object-oriented programming. |
| Typing | Statically typed, strong type system with explicit type declarations. | Statically typed, with implicit typing by default (can be made explicit), and type safety varies by version. |
| Performance | High performance, close to C, with manual memory management and low-level control. | Traditionally excellent performance, especially for numerical and scientific computing, with highly optimized compilers. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem, but can interoperate with C libraries easily. | Rich set of libraries for scientific and numerical computing, but fewer modern frameworks. |
| Community and support | Growing but still small and young community, active development. | Established, mature community, especially in scientific and engineering domains. |
| Learning curve | Moderate; modern syntax but requires understanding of low-level concepts. | Varies; older syntax can be challenging, but modern Fortran is more approachable for those with scientific backgrounds. |
