  Because Fortran is FORmula TRANslator and it is very easy to express complex equations with it. It the lingua franca of scientific computing.

    TIL. I'm curious what Fortran buys you over, say, Julia.
    • Loic 6y ago
      We simply master Fortran because of all the number crunching we are doing, nothing more.

  because it is powerful, fast, simple, object oriented, while being natively parallel, on both shared and distributed architecture.
