The statement that is false regarding FORTRAN is

  • A.It was developed for mathematical calculations
  • B.Excessive internal documentation is required
  • C.It is problem oriented
  • D.It is one of the oldest high level languages

Answer: D

Correct answer: Excessive internal documentation is required

FORTRAN is the opposite: being terse and mathematical, it is criticised for being hard to read and for encouraging too little documentation, not too much. The other three statements are all true - it was designed for mathematical work, it is problem oriented, and it is the oldest surviving high level language.
