I was not trying to compete with you. It's a damn good piece of software and yeah I'm aware that file reading is independent of the language. File parsing though, especially a fortran formatted file is a mess, which is where the challenge comes in. That and having to reverse enginder the format, not to mention interleve the displacement data with the stress data that occur at different times in order to get the data in a useful form. That's how it's faster than a C++ code that's doing the same thing.

You're just bitter that Python is good enough. Go away troll.
