Introduction to FORTRAN 90 for Engineers and Scientists

Best-selling authors, Larry Nyhoff and Sanford Leestma, bring you one of the first Fortran 90 texts in concise and modular format that features excellent engineering and science applications and programming problems. The authors, well-known for their clear, concise presentation style emphasize how Fortran 90 is used to solve problems. Their strong pedagogical approach teaches the basic steps in program development, problem analysis and specification, algorithm development, program coding, program execution and testing, and program maintenance. Key features include a true Fortran 90 module; 115 Program Problems relevant to engineering and science; 36 complete programming examples; 13 Real-world Application sections that are specifically geared to various fields in engineering and science and illustrate their problem solving methodology; 475 exercises; Programming Pointers that suggest good program structure, style techniques, and warn against potential problems and pitfalls; and an FTP site from which you can download all the sample programs and subprograms marked in the text with a disk icon, the data files used in the examples, and on-line transparency masters.
