Customer Reviews

Good

I'm a college freshman who took a course that needed this book. I would say that the price and condition wise of the product sent to me is great, but I don't know if the content's helpful or not. Overall, I'll give this product a 5-star for it's price and condition.

Gives good examples of real world applications

I have been using this book to teach an introductory university-level mechanical engineering class that emphasizes computer programming. This book adequately covers all important topics in Fortran and contains many real-world engineering applications (such as solving for roots). The examples are well commented, which is great for students who are beginning to learn how to program. I feel that this book is designed for someone who has very little experience in computer programming and I would not recommend this book to someone who is already well-versed in other computer languages. A much smaller book, such as "Schaum's Outline of Programming With Fortran 77 (Schaum's Outlines)," would be better for advanced programmers who want to learn Fortran.

Good and Solid Presentation of the FORTRAN language

An excellent way for begginers to understand the structure of FORTRAN. Useful also for experienced programmers with a detailed index table.
