Introducing Fortran 90

This text provides an introduction to FORTRAN 90 - the language frequently chosen by scientists, engineers and mathematicians. FORTRAN 90 is considered by many to be the only practical langauge with sensible constructs for parallel computation, an area of increasing importance in computer science. The book provides coverage of a recommended subset of the full FORTRAN 90 language, chosen because it fits most closely with the theory and practice of structured programming, data structures and software engineering. Complete beginners with little or no knowledge of programming, as well as existing users of FORTRAN 77 who are looking to move to FORTRAN 90, should find this book useful. Examples are used to highlight the language features.
