Did you write FORTRAN back in Uni/at job? I did it once for an assignment for fun and tried to shoehorn it in for a Neural Network impl (pre-NN-hate), but could never get it to work. Not enough free libraries either (FORTRAN _desperately_ needs a sort() builtin).

I did some back in my aero eng days, yeah. Mostly translating old code to MATLAB or embedded C environments, but yeah
-
I remember when MATLAB was quite literally the language I was most familiar with after C. Uni _loved_ it. I'm not against it, but I think sci/numpy finally more-or-less caught up for me; haven't upgraded my totally-legal-copy of MATLAB since 2015.

Curious, what were you doing that required you to convert FORTRAN to embedded C (basically I'm asking: Was it for microcontrollers? A PLC? Something else that needed to run a math-heavy algorithm in real-time?)?
-
We were implementing a model reference adaptive controller to do some hardware-in-the-loop testing. The model was in FORTRAN. So it had to be converted to MATLAB to run in Simulink, then we code-genned to C.

Oh right, I think you discussing control theory (before everything went to hell of course) was the initial reason I followed you. I still need to read more about nonlinear control. I still love the good-ol' PID even if no one else does* :D. * B/c I actually understand the math.

I resemble that. Though I haven’t seen that particular StackExchange Q yet
