Hello everybody!

I learned programming with FORTRAN, and after several years of
experience in programming from FORTRAN, BASIC, FOXPRO , CA-CLipper and
C/C++, I may ask: What can be done in FORTRAN that cannot be done in
C/C++ or any of the previously mentioned languages? I see that C/C++
has all the necessary resources to do number crunching, is really
necessary to use FORTRAN?

Thanks in advance
