• How to call Fortran routines from JavaScript with Node.js

  In order to compile Fortran programs, you'll need a Fortran compiler. In this post, we'll be using GNU Fortran (GFortran) to compile Fortran code. GFortran is an implementation of the Fortran programming language in the widely used GNU Compiler Collection (GCC), an open-source project maintained under the umbrella of the GNU Project. To check whether GFortran is already installed. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• 📣 Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is.

  You can use the website, on mobile or desktop. It works fine. I don't get why people think that if they can't use some 3rd party app to access Reddit they'll ... I dunno, browse the archives at gcc.gnu.org or something. There is nothing else like Reddit. Source: almost 2 years ago

• In you opinion is it better to code the arduino in the arduino language or c++, and do you prefer the arduino IDE or vs code IDE

  It even uses a completely vanilla C++ compiler, with avr-libc and Arduino's own libraries and framework. Source: almost 2 years ago

• x64 Assembly: Multithreading from Scratch Part 1: Hello World!

  In this tutorial I'm using the GNU assembler gas with intel syntax along the the GNU linker. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• Is there a road map on what to do after learning a programming language ?

  But basically get yourself an editor (like notepad++ or VSCode) and a compiler (https://gcc.gnu.org). Write some code and compile it to an executable. There, you made a program. Source: about 2 years ago

• bash not working on VS Code app?

  I believe the make command is something that is included in the CS50 codespace only. You would need to compile your code using something else like gcc or another C compiler. Source: about 2 years ago

• We Need to Know LR and Recursive Descent Parsing Techniques

  You're misinformed. Clang also has a custom parser. Both gcc and clang have great support for new standards, though as those standards are evolving some features aren't there yet (but none of the missing features have anything to do with parsing difficulties). You can find lots of detail on feature coverage at https://gcc.gnu.org . - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Microcontrollers in the real world

  The underlying 'Arduino IDE' compiler is not written by Arduino, it is GCC with extensions (some written by Arduino). See https://gcc.gnu.org/. But even that varies. For example if you are programming ARM micros such as the 32-bit Teensy family, it will be a different version of GCC with ARM extensions. The GCC compiler is widely used commercially and has been for many years. Arduino the company was smart to use it. Source: about 2 years ago

• GCC now includes Modula-2 and Rust. Do they work on OpenBSD?

  Seems a nice way to bury a lede :) No links back to GCC including the languages, and a look at https://gcc.gnu.org/ doesn't reveal it either, even if you click on changes for GCC 13. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Ready to miss a semi colon and spend the next hour stressing over what went wrong?

  GCC was originally written by Richard Stallman as the C compiler his (wildly successful) attempt to create a free-as-in-freedom UNIX clone. It has been ported to other Unix systems, but those usually come with clang. Source: over 2 years ago

• can't tkae this shit anymore

  I think most people just use GCC which works with both C and C++. Source: over 2 years ago

• Decompiling x86 Deep Neural Network Executables

  I don't have a ms windows pc available nor the time to setup cross compilation for one rn. (Assuming you meant an executable file for one of those with 'exe'). However you ahould be able be able to compile one for yourself by downloading, from e.g. https://nn-512.com/browse/DenseNet121, one of the generated C files and compiling it with GCC[0].

• Question about Gentoo: security and compiling things from source

  The GNU compiler collection (part of the GNU userspace toolset and the reason that pedants call the whole OS GNU/Linux) has been one of the cornerstones of Linux systems basically since its inception, although these days there's other compilers like clang and llvm available too.

• What is the point of free and open source software?

  One illustration of this came in 2015 when Stallman decided he Would rather prevent the Gnu Compiler Collection from supporting modern IDE features like symbol completion, than allow GCC front ends to be paired with free-but-not-copyleft backends like LLVM and Clang: "Since LLVM and Clang are not copylefted, they invite nonfree extensions. They are a gaping hole in the defensive wall around our city." Allowing... - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Lubuntu Compiler?

  Yes gcc is a supported compiler for anywhere in Debian & Ubuntu, which includes Lubuntu & LXQt of course. It's the full GNU C compiler which I've only ever used from CLI (command line). Were you expecting a GUI for it? Source: over 2 years ago

• Is there any research or articles on different, more efficient compiler designs?

  Bonus: Portability is desirable: It's nice to be able to swap out just the codegen stage and be able to re-use everything else to generate executables for many platforms. After investing in many codegen implementations for wide portability and nice optimizer(s), it becomes enticing to have multiple lexparse implementations as well, compiling multiple languages to the same IR and re-using the nice optimizer(s) and...

• What files does Arduino use that are GPL? (or how do I search to find them?)

  The compiler toolchain is GCC (GPLv3 with an exception for use of the binary-form standard library in non-free code) and avr-libc (BSD). It also includes avrdude (GPLv2). Source: almost 3 years ago
