    Error Fortran
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around issues faced after installing GCC and SciTE for Fortran programming. The user encountered an error when attempting to run basic code, suggesting that Windows could not locate the Fortran compiler. A common solution proposed was to add the compiler's directory path to the system's environment variable. Despite the user asserting that the path variable was already set, doubts were raised about its correctness, particularly regarding the directory structure shown in a screenshot. Ultimately, the user resolved the issue by following a tutorial on YouTube, indicating that video resources can be helpful for troubleshooting installation problems.

It appears to me that Windows doesn't know how to find your compiler. You need to add the directory path for the Fortran compiler to the path environment variable. Here's a link that might help if you don't know how to do this: http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm.

Hi Mark44

But the variable you are talking about is already set (refer the screenshot).

i think its something else.Can you suggest some other method of running fortran with good text editor as i am newbie...offcourse a freeone :P

I'm not convinced that you have the path variable set correctly. The screen shot was pretty small, so was hard to read. The 2nd item looks like C:\gcc\libexec\gcc\686pc...

Does this actually refer to a directory on your computer? The two gcc parts in the path seem odd to me.

I somehow got it working by following a video on YOUTUBE
 
Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'
I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
I tried a web search "the loss of programming ", and found an article saying that all aspects of writing, developing, and testing software programs will one day all be handled through artificial intelligence. One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
