How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Erlang to Fortran in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Erlang code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Fortran code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Erlang to Fortran using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Erlang and Fortran
Characteristic | Erlang | Fortran |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Erlang 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. |
Paradigm | Erlang is a concurrent, functional programming language. | Fortran is an imperative programming language. |
Typing | Erlang is dynamically typed. | Fortran is statically typed. |
Performance | Erlang is designed for high concurrency and fault-tolerance. | Fortran is known for its high performance in scientific and numerical computations. |
Libraries and frameworks | Erlang 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 support | Erlang has a small but dedicated community with good support. | Fortran has a long-standing community with good support for scientific and numerical computing. |
Learning curve | Erlang 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. |
