I LIKE PROGRAMMING IN ALL-CAPS. IT MAKES EVERYTHING I WRITE LOOK OFFICIAL, NO-NONSENSE AND GENERALLY HARD-CORE. INSTEAD OF HAVING A CONVERSATION WITH THE COMPILER I INSTEAD SHOUT!!! COMMANDS AT IT.
- FraaJad 12y agoOh so clever to make fun of FORTRAN. This is how the modern FORTRAN Hello world looks like... program hello print *, "Hello World!" end program hello
- tormeh 12y agoI was actually partly serious. I voluntarily program in all-caps fortran because I think it makes my code look old/funny/the things I said.
- sampo 12y agoFortran has not been all caps after 1991, when the Fortran 90 standard came out. You knowledge is 24 years old.
- tormeh 12y agoYeah, I know. It's just that I like programming in an old-school way for fun. I briefly considered not using structured programming at all, but that's kinda too much.
