Produktbeschreibung

This textbook provides an accessible introduction to the most important features of Fortran 2008. Features: presents a complete discussion of all the basic features needed to write complete Fortran programs; makes extensive use of examples and case studies to illustrate the practical use of features of Fortran 08, and supplies simple problems for the reader; provides a detailed exploration of control constructs, modules, procedures, arrays, character strings, data structures and derived types, pointer variables, and object-oriented programming; includes coverage of such major new features in Fortran 08 as coarrays, submodules, parameterized derived types, and derived-type input and output; highlights the topic of modules as the framework for organizing data and procedures for a Fortran program; investigates the excellent input/output facilities available in Fortran; contains appendices listing the many intrinsic procedures and providing a brief informal syntax specification for thelanguage.

Rezensionen

"This book, which could be used either as a textbook or a reference, covers the main aspects of Fortran 2008. ... The book is clearly written and has many examples, as well as longer case studies. ... it could be a useful reference for both students and professionals who use Fortran." (D. Bollman, Computing Reviews, December, 2015)
