Why would you be using FORTRAN? Is there some sadistic class that actually makes you use it?

I know some places still actually use it, but I would assume if you got hired to work in FORTRAN you would at the very least know how to run it.

Class.  It's more about coding in general, but the labs are in Fortran.  You wouldn't happen to know what I'm supposed to do, would you?

lol no, they never made me deal with FORTRAN (they I had to deal with other random not widely used languages in horrible text editors).

In general, any ideas about compiling text?  I can do it on Linux just fine, but I can just use the Terminal then.

 

@Retrasado: I've looked at that. It implicitly suggests that I'm supposed to click on either "gcc" or "gfortran" in the bin folder, but when I tried that, a command prompt shows up for a split second and disappears again, and that's it.

It's probably been 7 seven years since I'have had to do anything in gcc and I'm thankful for that.  I don't really much about it, I use mainly visual stuff when I do anything anymore, sorry. :-/
