I don't really like the title of this post, due to its implications... you can only resurrect something that is dead. But Fortran is alive and kicking. It is a fundamental language of our technological infrastucture. Millions of people run algorithms every day that are implemented in Fortran! It is also one of the few languages where you can reliably implement numerical algorithms and reason about their efficiency and memory usage.

Author here. Yes, some people did not like the title, I didn't realize that it necessary means Fortran was dead. I meant it in the way of "rejuvenate". Fortran was not dead.

“Rejuvenating Fortran” would have been a better title ;-)
