Promoting Fortran in non-English languages

Thanks for this link, I saw that fortran-lang’s Twitter also @ fcode.cn, this is really a dream linkage.

Yes, there are still a large number of Fortran users doing scientific computing in China. We have a public welfare portal: fcode.cn, which provides many tools and ways for Chinese Fortran developers.

Most importantly, we also have 2 QQ groups:

  • Fortran 初学 (beginners) (QQ: 100125753) (members: 948/1000)

  • Fortran Coder (QQ: 2338021) (members: 2879/3000)

Unfortunately, there is an upper limit on the number of QQ group members, so these two groups are like Fortran schools, with some enrolled and some graduated.

We often (every day, every moment) discuss Fortran programming issues in these QQ groups.

We often joke, if these two QQ groups are disbanded, Fortran’s TIOBE ranking will move up to 5 places! (Because if we don’t have these groups, we need to search for Fortran tutorials on the internet)

There is also a small group of Fortran fans.

  • fortran-lang (QQ: 707660285) (members: 10)

When the time is ok, we will contribute to the Chinese version of the fortran-lang website. (Link: Draft: Internationalization for fortran-lang by awvwgk)
