F is a modular, compiled, numeric programming language, designed for scientific programming and scientific computation.[1] F was developed as a modern Fortran, thus making it a subset of Fortran 95.[2] It combines both numerical and data abstraction features from these languages. F is also backwards compatible with Fortran 77, allowing calls to Fortran 77 programs. F was implemented on top of compilers from NAG, Fujitsu, Salford Software and Absoft. It was later included in the g95 compiler.
