How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Golang to Fortran in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Golang 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 Golang 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.
Golang
Fortran
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.

Key differences between Golang and Fortran
Characteristic | Golang | Fortran |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Golang has a C-like syntax with curly braces and semicolons. It also has a simpler syntax compared to Fortran. | Fortran has a unique syntax that is different from most programming languages. It uses keywords and statements that are specific to Fortran. |
Paradigm | Golang is a multi-paradigm language that supports procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming. | Fortran is primarily a procedural programming language, but it also supports some object-oriented programming concepts. |
Typing | Golang is a statically typed language, which means that variable types are checked at compile time. | Fortran is also a statically typed language, but it has some dynamic typing features. |
Performance | Golang is known for its high performance and efficiency, especially in terms of concurrency and parallelism. | Fortran is also a high-performance language, especially for scientific and engineering applications. |
Libraries and frameworks | Golang has a growing number of libraries and frameworks, but it still has fewer options compared to more established languages like Java or Python. | Fortran has a large number of libraries and frameworks for scientific and engineering applications, but it may have fewer options for other types of applications. |
Community and support | Golang has a growing community and good support from Google, which created the language. | Fortran has a long history and a dedicated community, but it may have fewer resources and support compared to more popular languages. |
Learning curve | Golang has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers with experience in C-like languages. | Fortran has a steeper learning curve, especially for developers who are not familiar with scientific or engineering applications. |
