Key differences between Elm and Fortran

CharacteristicElmFortran
SyntaxElm has a syntax inspired by Haskell and is known for its simplicity and readability.Fortran has a syntax that is more traditional and can be considered less modern compared to Elm.
ParadigmElm is a functional programming language that promotes immutability and pure functions.Fortran is a procedural programming language that focuses on imperative programming.
TypingElm has a strong static type system that helps catch errors at compile-time.Fortran has a static type system, but it is not as strict as Elm's.
PerformanceElm is designed for front-end web development and focuses on performance optimizations for web applications.Fortran is known for its high performance in scientific and numerical computing.
Libraries and frameworksElm has a smaller ecosystem compared to Fortran, but it has a strong focus on functional reactive programming and provides libraries like Elm UI and Elm Architecture.Fortran has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available for scientific and numerical computing, as well as general-purpose programming.
Community and supportElm has a growing community and provides official documentation and support through its website and forums.Fortran has a long-established community and extensive support resources, including online forums, documentation, and libraries.
Learning curveElm has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with functional programming concepts.Fortran has a steeper learning curve, especially for developers without prior experience in scientific or numerical computing.
