This directory contains the files example.README - this file example.f - a fuly commented version of the code for help with programming syntax example2.f - a version of the code with most comments removed for easier coding readibility example.com - a file containing variables that are in a COMMON block (see code comments for further information) example.out - the output of this code, when you compile and run the code, your output will be called "example.dat". It should be identical. ------------------------------------------------------- to compile this example fortran program, type f77 example.f -o example.exe in your xterm. The format of the f77 compile command line is "f77 infile -o outfile" you can call the outfile anything you want to. leaving off the "-o outfile" creates the outfile called "a.out" (not a recommended habit) ------------------------------------------------------- to run this program type example.exe in your xterm.
