Fortran has had built-in array operations since the Fortran 90 standard. If X and Y are scalars or arrays of the same shape, you can X+Y, X*Y, exp(X), sin(X) etc. You can define your own elemental functions that act on both scalars and arrays of any rank. I still write loops when programming in Fortran 95 but less often than in Fortran 77. So I think modern Fortran is an array language.
