Aimed at first year undergraduate engineering, science and computer science students, this book aims to motivate them via interesting examples and applications, while emphasizing good programming style. The authors support their strong coverage of programming issues with extensive pedagogical devices designed to help students grasp the logic behind programming and FORTRAN specifics. Students are shown how to use FORTRAN as a problem-solving tool, through applied examples taken from engineering, science and other disciplines.
This is a good book,an excellent read.I have many books in Fortran but i have not come across this type yet.The writing style is incredibly simple and straightforward.The authors talk in a very relaxed mode,somehow coaxing you to understanding.What more,it is written in modern style-Structured and Modular.If you ever have problems understanding other Fortran books,please try this one.In each chapter,the concluding sections on 'Odds and Ends' are invaluable.Chances are,you wont find these in other texts.However,the Fortran 90 components of the language are not explicitly highlighted as suggested by the title.
