I don't know. Perhaps you can tell us. OT(childhood psychological trauma){ I find it unreadable and had unpleasant experience with fortran code. I actually had to **pick a compiler** to the existing code in order to compile and get expected results. After a few painful loops of "get a new compiler" - "compile" - "fail" I was told that ifort should handle the situation. I downloaded ifort (will RMS ever forgive me?) and found out that my processor didn't support all the instructions required for running ifort (SSE2). Of course it (code failing to compile) is programmer's fault. It was a part of my job so I couldn't just lay it off and forget about it. }; >> Unfortunately.

Suddenly, modelling in physics isn't computational mathematics and it's easier to think in object rather than procedures. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJUFublAAoJEK64IL1uI2ha5KEH/iBEdbQqrc0UDQFcJnZXYTVB evtVw0skLbCrH8ir9IgDjMwofGHQ1ReQhDQdmEf/KyIg0kdEGE4dm19SN9ihwEgn 8JUr1Q1eHZAjhTBF0UE3GtKTgr9jrQ1PaqH9evjGQ5i5TCLZdR4BCoPbvv2e1rr7 90EgMPU5dPYd3aJqpOa+Ns0f7pc07RaDl2iWg9BAfJquxnTJFppcKqBi/dUfynB5 MKgjGuHmV4F62QOhUNS1dAmhVNm+PPUE31wSWMyegbdq3Yi5o5+jVzbDBKPwn/+4 jvXBcIPr+IMtl3vMAvQmA5DMM6Th1GhSblJrLSLHxFDvDNqctfrwbzAWa+j4OHo= =3Qk0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
