Key differences between Erlang and Fortran

CharacteristicErlangFortran
SyntaxErlang has a unique syntax that is based on Prolog and uses pattern matching extensively.Fortran has a more traditional syntax that is similar to other imperative programming languages.
ParadigmErlang is a concurrent, functional programming language.Fortran is an imperative programming language.
TypingErlang is dynamically typed.Fortran is statically typed.
PerformanceErlang is designed for high concurrency and fault-tolerance.Fortran is known for its high performance in scientific and numerical computations.
Libraries and frameworksErlang has a rich set of libraries and frameworks for building distributed and fault-tolerant systems.Fortran has libraries and frameworks for scientific and numerical computations.
Community and supportErlang has a small but dedicated community with good support.Fortran has a long-standing community with good support for scientific and numerical computing.
Learning curveErlang has a moderate learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming concepts.Fortran has a relatively steep learning curve due to its syntax and lack of modern language features.
