Seems like those measurements show that most times the C programs were faster than the Fortran programs.
- TheRealKing 8y agoWouldn't it depend on how those benchmarks were written?
- igouy 8y agoAnd that is why all the program source code, and compiler options, and program output is shown on the benchmarks game website. (Any underlined text is a HTML link allowing you to drill-down to more detail).
- TheRealKing 8y agoI highly doubt if there would be any performance difference between carefully written Fortran, Ada, C, C++ codes. The much more relevant question is which one has the least development time for the given task.
- igouy 8y agogus_massa made a specific claim about what we could see on the benchmarks game website, and we can see that claim is really not true.
