gfortran compiler

[William Clodius]

I suggest you check out https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries <https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries>. The binaries there are a bit out of date, it would be nice if 7.1+ builds were available, but they should do for the vast majority of users. Note some of the links to other distributions are more up to date, e.g., HPC Mac OS X provides a Mac High Sierra build of gfortran 7.1.

I want to install the gfortran compiler but I see that it is not a strait forward download and install. It requires to build up / installing the gcc.gnu system for which there are several requisites (installed libraries, etc.), procedures, configurations, etc., of which I do not understand. I am not an IT trained professional, I just simple use Hardware, software (baught and/or created by me). I wander if you can give me a hand by providing me with a series of steps to be performed leading to the installation and use of the gfortran compiler.
