Or by modern Fortran, which has had array operations since the 1990 standard? There are functional elements such as PURE functions and the FORALL construct.
"Fortran is the only language that has an International Standards Body that sees that sees scientific programmers (and by extensions HPC programmers) as their target audience."

I've always felt that it was a bit of a shame that Fortran is falling by the wayside nowadays, a lot of universities are teaching C++ (or even C) instead now and it just isn't as pleasant to use for scientific computing work.
