  Does anyone have some good experience in performing scientific calculations
in FORTRAN using linux?
I should be very interested to know the technical details, specially
regarding the behaviour of f2c translator and of the gcc compiler
for the source generated by f2c. Is there any possibility to use the
scientific libraries written in FORTRAN (e.g. NAG)?
Are there any free C equivalents?

Any help will be highly appreciated!!!
