In the light of this post I've updated our web pages at
http://www.kcl.ac.uk/kis/support/cit//fortran/f90home.html
I've included details of the following
a brief description of the new f2k features
links to the fortran 2000 standards home directory
links to a very readable paper by John Reid about the new features
links to the BCS Fortran Specialist Group home pages, and
to a meeting held in October 2002 entitled Fortran 2000 Forum.
I've also been working with a pre-release of NAGs compiler
and they will be releasing a new version of the compiler
in November with some Fortran 2000 features. If you want more
information they have given John Holden as a contact. His email address
is
john.holden_at_nag.co.uk
replace _at_ with the expected character for a valid email address.
Jane Sleightholme and I are now offering on-site Fortran training
for commercial and educational users in the uk.
Please contact one of us for more details.
cheers
