About:
The Fortran Standard Library (stdlib) provides a comprehensive, community-driven collection of reusable modules for modern Fortran. It offers robust implementations for common tasks like string handling, numerical algorithms, and data structures, following the Fortran Standardization Committee's guidelines.
Key Features:
  • Modern Fortran (2008/2018) compliant
  • Community-driven development
  • Comprehensive numerical routines
  • String handling and data structures
Use Cases:
  • Developing scientific and engineering applications
  • Replacing custom utility code with standardized routines
  • Learning modern Fortran best practices
Alternatives:
  • GNU Fortran Library (libgfortran) – Part of GCC, provides low-level runtime support rather than high-level domain-specific routines.
