< sulix> It turns out that there are more pointers in fortran than I had previously suspected.
< sulix> I _think_ associated(a) is equivalent to (a == NULL) and associated(a,b) is (a == &b), but I'm very confused.
< sulix> There are all of these '%' signs everywhere.
< sulix> Ah. struct%var == struct.var.
< sulix> This is horrible.
< matches> No it's not, it's just that you've been conditioned into accepting the '.' as the member access operator. This is due to the capitalist conspiracy behind all other languages. The evidence is in the term 'C-like language'. 'C-like' means "liked by capitalists". If you read the FORTRAN manifesto, you would embrace '%' as the only logical choice. -
