Aren’t many of these Fortran libraries heavily used all throughout almost any kind of application, somewhere deep down their dependency tree?

- defrost 3y agoAbsolutely .. and generally written to a very high standard with a lot of checking, rechecking and running forwards and backwards across multiple architectures with extensive technical mailing lists. They can still have bugs, memory issues, be called with parameters that cause resource blow outs and aren't "memory safe" in the sense that modern managed languages are. Matlab is exactly as reliable as well written Fortran and C code can be.
