Hi, I'm a undergrad Physics students (starting junior level mechanics and E&M next semester). I've just taken a course in basic computation, so I know more about using a linux terminal. Currently I use Mac OS X and I was wondering if it was advisable that I run and learn how to use Linux too (using parallels probably). If so, which version would be recommended? I was thinking about Ubuntu since it seems the most basic, but I don't know if its worth the time or if there's something else better suited for science students.
On an unrelated note, does anyone know a good fortran or C++ compiler for a Mac? I don't have the latest one (snow leapord) and my computer doesn't seem to come with one. Are there any compilers anyone can recommend. Thanks
