This project contains a simple "Hello World" program written in Fortran, which is compiled and run inside a Docker container. It demonstrates how to use Docker with Fortran for a basic compilation and execution workflow. Using Docker is particularly handy if you don't have Fortran installed on your system, as it removes the need for native installation and configuration.

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed on your system:

• Docker: Install Docker

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine.

• hello_world.f90: The Fortran source file that prints "Hello, World!".
• Dockerfile: The Dockerfile for creating a Docker image that compiles and runs the Fortran program.

To build the Docker image, navigate to the directory containing the Dockerfile and run the following command:

docker build -t fortran-hello-world .

This command builds a new Docker image named fortran-hello-world based on the instructions in the Dockerfile.

docker run fortran-hello-world

This command creates and starts a container from the fortran-hello-world image. You should see "Hello, World!" printed to the console.
