Reviews
An excellent, authoritative and complete reference book on the modern Fortran language, where all its possibilities are collected and any detail of the language can be clearly consulted. * European Mathematical Society *
Well organized and equipped with good examples, the text can be used as both a tutorial and a reference. It describes each of the language elements and explains where FORTRAN 2018 differs from its predecessors. A thorough index is provided; all illustrations are clear and concise. The language used in descriptions and explanations throughout the book is clear and easy to follow. This book is an excellent resource for all practitioners. * F. H.
