This course is targeted at scientists who wish to extend their knowledge of Fortran beyond what is provided in the Fortran 95 standard. Some other tools relevant for software engineering are also discussed.
To consolidate the lecture material, each day's approximately 4 hours of lecture are complemented by 3 hours of hands-on sessions.
Prerequisites:
Course participants should have basic UNIX/Linux knowledge (login with secure shell, shell commands, simple scripts, editor vi or emacs). Good knowledge of the Fortran 95 standard is also necessary, such as covered in the February course at LRZ.
