The reason physisicsts use Fortran is that is what they have always used. Though there is a niche of java for physics. > (I think Vector would make a great abstract class..) performance. Imagine you have an 'event' that takes place thousands of times a sec, you need to analyse it enough to decide if it is 'interesting' enough to be worth recording. Kind of equivalent of what Echelon does with voice calls; the more real time prefiltering you can do the better. Then once you have the data you need to analyse it as much as possible. Fortran has led the way in vectorizing compilers, though the codeplay C/C++ compiler for win32 looks like it can do a good job of vectorizing stuff for the MMX/SSE registersets. > Is there enough support for Fortran to justify the effort to incorporate support for Ant?? There is some fortran support in already; someone wanted it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: For additional commands, e-mail:
