Ghenghis:
I'm sure the maths of 50 years ago is still quite applicable today, the same cannot be said for a programming.
The math libraries that were developed when FORTRAN was the only scientific programming language are huge!
(remember this was when there was the space race including all sorts of scientific drives that bough computing into the mainstream)

This is like the same argument we are having about PHP vs Java/C++. old lang vs newer lang

The Maths API in Fortan can be a very low level at times while some of the math API's in C++ are abstracted at a higher level such that you just need to call a method to solve a problem while you might have to code this solution yourself in fortran
