Introduction to Fortran 90 Programming Reading The following notes are based on Ellis, T.M.R., Phillips, Ivor R., and Lahey, Thomas M.: Fortran 90 Programming, Addison-Wesley Publishing Company. Telling a Computer What To Do To get a computer to perform a specific task it must be given a sequence of unambiguous instructions or a program. Generating a program: Text file with instructions (Source Code; Fortran 90) Translation into computer-compatible form (Compiler) Executable Program The Linux look and feel Cygwin is a Linux-like environment for Windows that consists of two parts: A DLL (“Dynamic Link Library”, cygwin1.dll) A collection of tools, which provide Linux look and feel Link: A few useful Linux commands pwd – print name of current/working directory ls – list directory contents cd – change directory mkdir – make directories rm – remove files or diretories man – format and display the on-line manual pages (e.g. man pwd) How to start cygwin Open cygwin window by double-clicking on the start_cygwin DOS batchfile provided with this exercise If this does not work ... How to start cygwin II Double-click on the cygwin icon on the desktop In the computer room, try typing cd $ceida If this does not work ... How to get to your directory Copy the file /dozent/public/Austausch/anma/.profile to your cygwin home directory: How to get to your directory II Try it the long way: cd c: cd Dokumente und Einstellungen cd [put your username here] cd Eigene Dateien cd [put your working directory here] Creating and Running a Program Invoke the editor from the Start menu, or type Creating and Running a Program Use the editor to create a file called hello.f90, which contains the following source code: Compile by typing g95 hello.f90 (in the cygwin window) Run the program by typing ./a.exe (g95 by default creates an executable called a.exe) Basic Fortran 90 concepts All words which have a special meaning in Fortran are known as keywords. Every main program unit must
