Key differences between Kotlin and Fortran

CharacteristicKotlinFortran
SyntaxKotlin has a modern and concise syntax that is similar to Java but with some added features such as null safety, extension functions, and lambdas.Fortran has a more verbose syntax that is optimized for scientific and engineering applications. It has a fixed-format syntax that requires specific column positions for each statement.
ParadigmKotlin is a multi-paradigm language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming.Fortran is a procedural language that is primarily used for scientific and engineering applications.
TypingKotlin is a statically-typed language that supports type inference.Fortran is a statically-typed language that requires explicit type declarations.
PerformanceKotlin is a high-performance language that can be compiled to native code or run on the JVM. It has good performance characteristics for most applications.Fortran is a high-performance language that is optimized for scientific and engineering applications. It has good performance characteristics for numerical computations.
Libraries and frameworksKotlin has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including popular ones like Spring Boot, Ktor, and Android Jetpack.Fortran has a limited ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, but it has strong support for scientific and engineering applications.
Community and supportKotlin has a large and active community with strong support from JetBrains, the company that created the language. It is also supported by Google for Android development.Fortran has a smaller community than Kotlin, but it has strong support from scientific and engineering organizations.
Learning curveKotlin has a relatively low learning curve for developers who are familiar with Java or other object-oriented languages. It has good documentation and a growing number of resources.Fortran has a steeper learning curve than Kotlin, especially for developers who are not familiar with scientific and engineering applications. It has limited documentation and resources compared to more popular languages.
