It appears based on the limited information on the website lfortran is in its early stages. It appears to have as a goal the ability to execute code interactively, and as a negative is creating its own extension to the Fortran Standard. Also seems to require Java. Flang on the other hand is really at this point 2 projects, both supported/developed by Nvidia. Flang is the current compiler that is either complete or reasonably complete from a Fortran standpoint but requires various things to work (a custom version of clang for example I believe). Also included under the Flang umbrella is f18, a new Fortran compiler being written from scratch with the goal of it being a proper member of the LLVM community, and they have interacted with the existing LLVM/clang community to find the best way to proceed. In both cases (Flang/f18) they are traditional style compilers that don't offer an interactive mode I believe. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit https://beowulf.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
