Flangisa new front-end for Fortran 2018 that has been recentlyadded to LLVM.It is implemented in modern C++ and uses a Fortran-oriented MLIR dialect for lowering to LLVM IR.This project is under active development.

Intel Fortran Compiler (ifx), a new, LLVM-based compilerthat comes with full Fortran 2018 support. It also supports the majority of OpenMP 5.0/5.1 including offload to Intel GPUs.ifx can also offload do concurrent to Intel GPUs.


The current version of Intel oneAPI is available for free, and support can be purchased.Currently the ifx compiler supports Linux and Windows platforms for x86-64 architectures. ifort supports Linux, Windows, and macOS.Community support is available for the free version at the Intel Developer forum.Optionally, you can purchase Priority Support with additional benefits including access to previous versions of ifort and ifx.


The latest NAG Fortran Compilerrelease (7.0) has extensive support for legacy and modern Fortran features including parallel programming with coarrays, as well as additional support for programming with OpenMP.


The Compiler also provides significant support for Fortran 2018 (atomicoperations, events and tasks, plus other smaller features), almost all ofFortran 2008, complete coverage of Fortran 2003, and all of OpenMP 3.1. Allplatforms include supporting tools for software development: source filepolishers, dependency generator for module and include files, call-graphgenerator, interface builder and a precision unifier.


The NVIDIA HPC SDK C, C++, and Fortran compilers, former PGI compilers, support GPU acceleration of HPC modeling and simulation applications with standard C++ and Fortran, OpenACC directives, and CUDA. GPU-accelerated math libraries maximize performance on common HPC algorithms, and optimized communications libraries enable standards-based multi-GPU and scalable systems programming.


The AMD Optimizing C/C++ Compiler (AOCC)compiler system is a high performance, production quality code generation tool.The AOCC environment provides various options to developers when building andoptimizing C, C++, and Fortran applications targeting 32-bit and 64-bit Linuxplatforms. The AOCC compiler system offers a high level of advancedoptimizations, multi-threading and processor support that includes globaloptimization, vectorization, inter-procedural analyses, loop transformations,and code generation. AMD also provides highly optimized libraries, which extractthe optimal performance from each x86 processor core when utilized. The AOCCCompiler Suite simplifies and accelerates development and tuning for x86applications.


The purpose of the GNU Fortran (GFortran) project is todevelop the Fortran compiler front end and run-time librariesfor GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection. GFortran development is partof the GNU Project. We seek to bringfree number crunching to a broad spectrum of platforms and users.


In particular, the project wishes to reach users of theFortran language, be it in the scientific community, education, or commercial environments. The GFortran compiler is fully compliantwith the Fortran 95 Standard and includes legacy F77 support.In addition, a significant number of Fortran 2003 and Fortran 2008features are implemented. Please give it a try. If you encounter problems,contact us at the mailing list or file a problem report.


GFortran development follows the open development process. We dothis to attract a diverse team of developers and to ensure that GFortranworks on multiple architectures and diverse environments. We always needmore help. If you are interested in participating, please contact us atfo...@gcc.gnu.org.(Also check out our mailing lists page.)


The GNU Project is about providing source code for its programs. For convenience, a number of people regularly build binaries for different platforms. Links to these can be found at the wiki. Most of the binary executables are the latest development snapshots of GFortran and areprovided to encourage testing. We also want new users, from studentsto masters of the art of Fortran, to try GFortran.It really is a great compiler!


The initial goal of the GNU Fortran Project was construction of aFortran 95 compiler that complies with the ISO Fortran 95 ProgrammingLanguage standard [ISO/IEC 1539-1:1997(E)]. We are now well intoF2003 and F2008 features.The GFortranwiki and our bug trackerlist features under development or yet to be implemented. Compilercapability is quite extensive and includes nearly all g77 features.We highly encourage users to move from g77, which is no longermaintained, and start taking advantage of GFortran's modern features.Legacy g77 code will compile fine in almost all cases.


I have read and followed this answer to install scipy/numpy/theano. However, it still failed on the same error of missing Fortran compiler after brew install gcc. While HomeBrew installed the gcc-4.8, it didn't install any gfortran or g95 commands. I figure gfortran may be just a synonymy of gcc, then I create a symlink


For Arch Linux, you'll need to install core/gcc-fortran, although I realized that I could just change the version of scipy in my requirements.txt file to the newest version available to fix the issue, too.


There is a trial NAG Fortran compiler for Apple Silicon (ARM) Macs. It is not free, I don't use it, and you will need to talk with NAG about any limitations it may have on M1/2/3 Macs and associated library compatibility. It is my understanding that GNU is not targeting their Fortran development for Apple Silicon Macs.


GNU Fortran (GFortran) is excellent on Apple Silicon. Easily installed via Homebrew (brew.sh) at the command line. I do all of my Fortran development and testing on Apple Silicon, before moving to Linux AMD and Intel clusters. It follows all the same/usual standards, is kept updated with the current version, and the performance per core is brilliant.


Thank you for the excellent information regarding GNU Fortran compiling platform. I'm a newbie at code writing and compiling and I apologize for asking this, but where do I get the GNU Fortran compiling binaries? I am using Apple M1 and M2 Silicon and am really in need of a Fortran compiler to compile the molecular dynamics software code, AMBER. Any information you can provide to help would be very thankfully received.


I have been using the llvm compiler on a M2 MacBook Pro with some success. Results are different than the same scientific code on other platforms/compilers though. I have not been able to figure that out. I could not get NAG fortran to work very well. Another member of our group successfully compiled our code using NAG on an Intel-based mac but I could not do so on the ARM M2 chip


There is no such thing as getting just the GNU fortran compiler. You must install the monster GNU C/C++ build and all of its libraries in order to get gfortran. Even on M1/M2 Macs, that will take awhile to build.


And there is the work-in-progress Flang project (Fortran 2018) under the auspices of LLVM which in their own words, is "not ready for production usage", but is in active development. It is free and has an Apache license. It is written in contemporary C++ and takes Fortran code to an executable.


This is not a direct answer to your question. However, for small test programs and exercises, you can also use one of the many online Fortran compilers. I specifically like the online gfortran compiler by tutorialspoint.com:


because they give you the option to set the compiler/linker flags by yourself. I have also directly asked them to set the default Fortran standard to Fortran 2018 (+ GNU Fortran extention) so that the user is automatically able to use all the new features of Fortran 2003/2008/2018.


Hi, I'm running MG(v2.7) on a new Mac, and when I generate a SM process for test, after output it gives me the error information of "no fortran compiler found", but actually I had installed gcc-6 by Homebrew and set alias gfortran='gfortran-6', and I had even test a f90 file on my Mac, it works correctly, so where' the problem, how can I fix it?


In principle to make it work with an alias you can edit the file

input/mg5_configuration.txt

and set your fortran compiler to your alias.

I have never tested that but it might work ( but you will see at least a warning that MG5aMC fails to detect that you are using the correct executable)


Similar to this question, but generalized to any mainframe computer from before the microprocessor era, does there exist an emulator and OS for a vintage mainframe computer that will run the output from a working FORTRAN compiler, from FORTRAN source code written on a contemporary system.


The goal is for a student to be able to write code in an early programming language version on a student's laptop (or Pi, etc., without the need for an actual noisy card punch); but then check that the resulting code might actually have run on an old mainframe by using a reasonably accurate emulator (prefer cycle accurate, but not absolutely necessary) and seeing the (emulated line printer or whatever) output.


One possibility to look at might be the Hercules emulator, which emulates the IBM S/370, ESA/390, and z/Arch systems. This is emulating the 'bare iron', and does not include the operating system or utilities, but there are sources for OS images and compilers listed on that page.


CDC's products included a number of the systems most deserving of the label mainframe based on historic usage of that term. These were physically large systems that took up a lot of real estate (see photo below of a CDC 7600), required (some of them) special power like 400 Hz AC and chilled water cooling, and could cost as much as $10 million in 1960's-era dollars. (That's mid to high tens of millions in 2017 dollars, perhaps over $100 million for whatever the most expensive would have been.)


The operating-systems these old systems use (e.g. NOS, NOS/BE, SCOPE, etc., for the CDC systems) are extremely obscure these days. I have been able to find some documentation on various websites for the compilers and operating systems. (Cray-cyber.org hosts some documentation themselves.)
