# The Power of **Linux** on Android.

Run full-fledged Linux Distros right on your Android device without rooting. Then enter

```auto
apt install gfortran

```

then eg

```auto
gfortran filename.f -o filename

```

then

```auto
./filename

```

Nice!  
Have you made some speed workbench on your smartphone? A comparison with a PC would be interesting.

There is also [Termux](https://termux.dev) project that provides Linux environment on Android devices.

Unfortunately this this project droped GCC in favor of LLVM+Clang so gfortran was dropped too. But now it’s packages base has:

```auto
~ $ pkg search fortran
...
flang/stable 15.0.1 aarch64
  LLVM's Fortran frontend

lfortran/stable 0.16.0-1 aarch64
  A modern open-source interactive Fortran compiler

```
