Statements like these without discussing the language standard most of the Software you have uses is kind of pointless.
I guess most of the legacy code for which they do this risk assessment is Fortran 77. Not any more modern.
And getting it up to date to modern fortran would be as much effort as any other modern language.
- reikonomusha 3y agoThe report mentions both "modern Fortran" (which they explicitly specify to be Fortran 2008) and "legacy Fortran" (which they don't further specify, but I assume is 77).
- kergonath 3y agoIn the community, “legacy Fortran” is pre-Fortran 90. Modern includes everything since then, so right now up to Fortran 2018.
