Programming in Fortran from zero to hero.

The introductory course, examples, and exercises in Fortran programming language. Originally written for personal needs but may be useful for other people.

• The notes from lectures are in notes directory.
• The codes based on lectures are in codes directory.
• The codes created on practicals are located in codes/practicals directory.

• Fortran programming basics
• Fortran parallel programming & high performance programming
  • OMP
  • MPI
  • Clusters
• Fortran numerical programming
  • BLAS
  • LAPACK

At this moment, compile each example as

gfortran source/<file_name.f90> -o build/<file_name>

We are working on Make/CMake support.

To compile a module as an object use

gfortran -c path/to/module_name.f90 -o module_name

To compile program and link object as an executable use

gfortran path/to/program path/to/object -o program_name

We use Python 3.5+.

python manage.py index   # works
python manage.py clean   # works

• Fast is better than slow.
• Slow is better than unmaintainable.
• Array-oriented is better than object-oriented.
• Make everything as simple as possible – but no simpler (Einstein).
• Simplicity is robustness.
• Make it look like the math.
• All inputs and outputs explicit.
• All inputs and outputs carefully named and clearly defined – the closer to the point of declaration the better.
• Vector is better than loop.
• Matrix is better than vector (unless it’s complicated).
• Strided is better than scattered.
• Contiguous is better than strided.
• Broadcasting is a great idea – use where possible.
