1000 Brown M and Ms posted:I actually saw a job ad for a Fortran developer earlier this year. Similar thing, legacy equipment/software that needs looking after and no-one at the company knows how One of those legacy fields is science: Almost all climate models (used in IPCC reports) are Fortran based, sometimes with a lovely mixup of F77, F90 and newer versions, with some key components written in ANSI C of some other legacy format the Postdoc in charge was interested in at the time. Many of the operational meteorological models are also Fortran based, but that might be changing. I think the Fortran had a specific benefit for the scientific community: It is quite limited in ways to make the code unreadable (not impossible though) and limited in ways to truly screw up your memory allocation, etc.
