would you care to compare the number of platforms that have a C compiler Vs
a FORTRAN compiler?

The code is much more portable in C.

He has done the amateur community a real service and is to be commended.
Your inane comments to the contrary.

From Fortran to C, what a waste of coding time... and how many errors
were introduced in the translation? Heh, heh. :-)

Many would feel... What a crime?

What's wrong with perfectly good Fortran?

BTW... there's nothing wrong with "GOTO"s that aren't readily fixed with
simple matching "COMEFROM" statements!

Rest in Peace E. Djkystra!
