The textbook offers a comprehensive introduction to Fortran 2008, emphasizing essential programming features. It includes extensive examples and case studies to demonstrate practical applications, along with simple exercises for readers. Key topics covered are control constructs, modules, procedures, and object-oriented programming, as well as new features like coarrays and parameterized derived types. Additionally, it highlights the organization of data and procedures through modules and explores Fortran's robust input/output capabilities. Appendices provide valuable references for intrinsic procedures and syntax.

Written by members of the Fortran 90ISO and ANSI committees, this book is the source of the most important information about the powerful new Fortran 90 programming language. All of the important new features of Fortran 90 are covered with examples, and case studies are used to illustrate the practical use of features.
