Introduction to week 2

Welcome to the second week of Fortran for scientific programming. So the main new thing which we learn about this week is in fact arrays and of course it’s a very important part of scientific computing, since they’re used to represent vectors and matrices. We will also go more in-depth into various Fortran features which were introduced before, but not in sufficient detail. So at the end of this week, you will actually have a pretty good overview of Fortran as a programming language. A few things are missing, but that’s for weeks to come. Don’t forget the capstone exercises because those are your main learning opportunity. Let’s go for it.
