I had to learn Fortran for my thesis because it's the industry standard in particle physics

How long ago? ROOT (and other frameworks like GEANT) using C++ has been the standard for over 15 years, but probably longer. I think my advisor was of the last generation that had to write in Fortran.

Currently lmao. I'm using those tools as well but some specific event generators I'm using are in Fortran still
