I work for NNSA actually. There&#x27;s a ton of codes in the nuclear engineering sector that are written in Fortran and it&#x27;s the lingua franca of the industry, though C++ and Python are taking over for new projects. One of the biggest codes in the industry (MCNP) is an enormous chunk of Fortran with a lineage going back over 60 years.<p>It&#x27;d be nice to see an LLVM frontend for Fortran; Intel has a stranglehold with ifort due to their excellent vectorization. Hopefully this project can provoke some competition.
