Clear and precise, this introduction to Fortran 90 focuses specifically on the programming needs of engineers. It covers all the materials students will need to get them started without going into extraneous detail and enables students to write programs from the very start. Special Application sections illustrate problem solving, while several complete programs and sample runs illustrate basic programming concepts and demonstrate good structure and style. Exercises and programming problems are included.
