Talk:Fortress (programming language)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'm looking forward to a release of this. Wouter Lievens 16:13, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
Saying Java is one of the previous works of Steele is a bit deceptive. I understand that he only came on late in the project to smooth out the syntax and some semantics.
If one wants to include previous language work of GLS, one should replace Java by High Performance Fortran where he really influenced the language design a lot, not as in Java. Some ideas, like the parallel for loop, were visible there already. jschrod 10:32, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
