I am doing a computer graphics course here , and am interested in
any Fortran 77 programmes which do Fractals , Spline curves and Bezier
curves (Preferably using the GKS library).If anyone's got any fortran
programmes that do these , I'd be most grateful if they could
be e-mailed over here to me.

While I'm here I might as well say what I think of Fortran.I programme
C and PASCAL also , and despite the fact that these two langauges
have nice features such as While's and until's , I have to say 
that for a programme which doesnt reply on speed and need to interact
with the operating system or memory , then fortran is (For me) much
faster to code.I find a Fortran programme easier to read than 
Pascal or C.You aren't just presented with a screenfull of symbols
,brackets and useless commands like 'do' and 'begin'.

I'm new to this group , and have read small snippets about
the new Fortran 90 ... Does anyone have any more info about this ?

Am I the only person who likes Fortran ?
