From the course: Introduction to Fortran

Learning Fortran

- [Instructor] Nobody does math by hand anymore, least of all lengthy and complex calculations. We use computers to do the number crunching for us. In this course, we will learn how to program using a language expressly designed for the purpose of easily getting a computer to do lots of calculations fast, Fortran. We'll show you how to install the tools you'll need, and cover the basics of programming, variables, logic and control flow, and procedures and modules. My name is Brad Richardson. I'm a Nuclear Engineer who fell in love with writing code. I've been writing Fortran for over a decade including numerous open-source libraries and tools. I work as a consultant and teacher to research software engineers, and focus on projects using Fortran. Join me in the course and let's learn Fortran.
