Coverage of the other additional features of Fortran 2003 follows, before new chapters on coarrays and the many other enhancements of Fortran 2008. Fortran marches on, remaining one of the principal programming languages used in high-performance scientific, numerical, and engineering computing. Fortran remains one of the principal programming languages used in high-performance scientific, numerical, and engineering computing. Modern Fortran explained: incorporating Fortran 2018 Cohen, Malcolm, Metcalf, Michael, Reid, John Ker. The opening chapters contain a complete description of Fortran 95, extended by Fortran 2003 allocatable array features. Fortran remains one of the principal programming languages used in high-performance scientific, numerical, and engineering computing. Modern Fortran Explained expands on its predecessor, Fortran 95/2003 Explained. A series of significant revisions to the standard versions of the language have progressively enhanced its capabilities and the latest standard, Fortran 2008, includes many modern features, such as object orientation, coarrays for parallel p Modern Fortran explained, by Michael Metcalf, John Reid, and Malcolm Cohen, describes the Fortran language, with chapters for important areas like array features, floating point exception handling, interoperability with C, and object-oriented programming getting their own chapters. The new edition of “Modern Fortran Explained” is out. Given the release of updated versions of Fortran compilers, the separate descriptions of Fortran 2003 and Fortran 2008 have been incorporated into the main text, which thereby becomes a unified description of the full Fortran 2008 version of the language. It is our hope that after having worked through this primer, the student will feel con dent consulting such a manual. This is the latest in the venerable series that provides an informal but mostly-definitive description of the Fortran standard (of course, the actual ISO standard is not that useful to anybody trying to learn the language, since it’s very technical and almost entirely unreadable). Modern Fortran Explained: Incorporating Fortran 2018 Michael Metcalf, John Reid, and Malcolm Cohen Abstract. Main Modern Fortran explained: incorporating Fortran 2018. The distinction between the three … Coverage of the other additional features of Fortran 2003 follows, before new chapters on coarrays and the many other enhancements of Fortran 2008. Fortran is the principle language used in the fields of scientific, numerical and engineering programming. The opening chapters contain a complete description of Fortran 95, extended by Fortran 2003 allocatable array features. This edition of Modern Fortran Explained expands on the last. Modern Fortran Explained Metcalf, M., Cohen, J., Reid, M. (Oxford University Press) (The 3rd edition is called \Fortran 90/2003 explained") in which most Fortran statements are de ned and examples are given.
