That’s right. But isn’t it how techs are declared dead ?

I'd probably go with adoption & activity spent building, but given the conversation seems like there might be a "tongue in cheek" aspect to this project ;)

But anyway the algo will be adjusted and improved through iterations. The project is 2 days old

According to this, Fortran may still be alive. Having written a lot of Fortran over the last decade, I knew Fortran is alive and well, but I would have though that this site would pick up the "Fortran is dead" meme from other places. Good on OP to recognize Fortran maybe isn't dead.
