Key differences between Fortran and Julia

CharacteristicFortranJulia
SyntaxFortran has a more traditional syntax, with a focus on mathematical notation and array operations.Julia has a more modern syntax, with a focus on simplicity and ease of use.
ParadigmFortran is primarily a procedural language, but also supports object-oriented programming.Julia is a multi-paradigm language, supporting functional, procedural, and object-oriented programming.
TypingFortran is a statically typed language.Julia is a dynamically typed language.
PerformanceFortran is known for its high performance in scientific computing and numerical analysis.Julia is designed for high performance, with a just-in-time (JIT) compiler and support for parallel computing.
Libraries and frameworksFortran has a large number of libraries and frameworks for scientific computing and numerical analysis.Julia has a growing number of libraries and frameworks for scientific computing and data analysis.
Community and supportFortran has a long history and a large community of users, with good support for scientific computing and numerical analysis.Julia has a growing community of users, with good support for scientific computing and data analysis.
Learning curveFortran has a steep learning curve, with a focus on low-level programming and mathematical notation.Julia has a relatively gentle learning curve, with a focus on simplicity and ease of use.
