RE: Help with g77 (DESPERATELY)


Hassan - I'm hitting myself for not making that suggestion.  One addition I
would make if you  do in fact consider the Python route - try VPython, it
adds to Python a good IDE, and fantastic, easy to use (I use them) 2D and 3D
graphics:

www.vpython.org

You'll end up downloading the basic Python (theres a link there), and the
VPython additions, the install has always been clean and easy for me.

One nice thing about Python is that while the syntax is pretty easy, it does
allow the user to put programs together in a structured way.  And, it is
interpreted, so you don't have to fight the compiler to get the right things
linked etc.  Plenty of time for that later when they are old and senile
Ph.D.'s like me.

Now that the nice gcc folks here are really mad at me...

Wait, I just remembered yet another Fortran idea.  There is an add-on to the
LCC C compiler that lets it do Fortran, and its free....  Sorry, muddying
the waters...
