Introducing Fortran 95 contains:
- Lots of clear and simple examples highlighting the language features
- Details of a variety of internet based sources which will prove invaluable for those seeking further information and support
- Key features of the latest version of Fortran, including ISO Technical Reports TR 15580 and TR 15581
This comprehensive introduction will be essential to the complete beginner who wants to learn the fundamentals of programming using a modern, powerful, expressive and safe language, and to those wanting to update their programming skills by making the move from earlier versions of Fortran.
Ian Chivers and Jane Sleightholme are the joint owners of comp-fortran-90. Both authors have been involved in teaching and supporting Fortran and related areas for over 20 years.
