โœฆ Synopsis

The need for both algebraic and numerical capabilities within mathematical computation systems has highlighted the need to translate numerical software written in Fortran77 to Common Lisp, a language favoured by the algebraic computation community.

This paper reports the current state of f2c1, a translator written to achieve that end. We describe the translation process giving details of Lisp equivalents of Fortran expressions, as well as discussing features of Fortran that have no straightforward equivalent in Lisp.

The automatic conversion of Fortran 77 to C can be accomplished using f2c, but the generated code is difficult to read and maintain, and needs to be linked with various non-standard run-time libraries which provide input/output and mathematical routines. This paper describes tools that have been dev
