How to use this tool?

This free online converter lets you convert code from Fortran to Tcl in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Fortran code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting Tcl code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Fortran to Tcl 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 Fortran and Tcl

CharacteristicFortranTcl
SyntaxFortran has a fixed-format syntax with strict column-based rules.Tcl has a simple and flexible syntax with commands and arguments separated by spaces.
ParadigmFortran is primarily a procedural programming language.Tcl is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming.
TypingFortran has static typing with explicit declaration of variables.Tcl has dynamic typing where variables are not explicitly declared.
PerformanceFortran is known for its high performance in scientific and numerical computations.Tcl is not optimized for performance and is generally slower than Fortran.
Libraries and frameworksFortran has a wide range of libraries and frameworks for scientific computing and numerical analysis.Tcl has a smaller collection of libraries and frameworks compared to Fortran.
Community and supportFortran has an active community and good support for scientific and numerical computing.Tcl has a smaller community and limited support compared to Fortran.
Learning curveFortran has a steeper learning curve due to its strict syntax and focus on scientific computing.Tcl has a relatively easier learning curve due to its simple syntax and flexibility.
