Fortran (short for Formula Translation) is one of the oldest high-level programming languages, first developed by IBM in the 1950s for scientific and engineering computation. It remains widely used today in high-performance computing fields like climate modeling, computational physics, and numerical simulation because of its strong performance in array and matrix operations.
