7. User Notes on Fortran Programming by Various

User Notes on Fortran ProgrammingUser Notes on Fortran Programming concentrates on topics which are not discussed in ordinary Fortran courses and regular textbooks: good programming practices, and various technical and numerical issues.

The authors aim to provide a clear exposition of these topics as they are essential for good programming, especially for large programming projects.

Chapters cover:

  • Programming.
  • Language topics.
  • Tools.
  • Floating point numbers.
  • The environment.

This book is an open cooperative practical guide which my be redistributed provided it’s kept updated, and all rights are reserved.

8. Computational Physics: Programming in Fortran 95 by Dr. Rachael Padman

Computational Physics: Programming in Fortran 95This is a primer for Fortran 95 starting with the very basics, before moving on to graphics and visualization.

The book also examines functions and subroutines, using modules, and numerical precision.

The book ends with sections on using the numerical library, NAG, and the case statement.
