I would say I already have a good understanding on Python and have done many Deep learning and machine learning projects in the past using tensorflow and even making my own crappy framework. I’m more just looking towards learning more about the bare bone fundamentals of how to parallelize neural networks by making them from scratch so I can best understand it all.

If your referring to Fortran, there’s gpu support using CUDA Fortran, the purpose of using computer clusters and CUDA Fortran and all that stuff seems to only be for ridiculously large data sets. To my knowledge NASA used such ideas when making simulations for rover landings and other things of the sort.

Many neural networks that are used in like physics chemistry and other fields are often written in Fortran and then trained on supercomputers. It’s mainly because Fortran is really easy to parallelize and even has built-in support for linear algebra. additionally most supercomputers run on Linux and to my knowledge fortran runs really well on Linux OS. I am also planning on learning C/C++ down the road for similar applications but currently I just think Fortran is more fun lol and again I’m doing it just for the fun of it.
Edit: this is to my knowledge again I am EXTREMELY new to Fortran but atleast from my google research it seems to be used in a range of large scale projects.

That’s a very good idea. I probably will do that, after getting a lot of these responses I’ve been thinking about just doing C++
