Fortran Integration of functions in Fortran

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the challenges faced by a user new to Fortran, specifically with finding advanced tutorials and resources after grasping the basics. The user is preparing for research and seeks guidance on integrating functions in Fortran, expressing a need for accessible learning materials due to a limited computer science background. Suggestions include exploring the Open Source Physics website for Java-based simulations that illustrate concepts relevant to Fortran, as well as a recommendation for a specific book aimed at beginners. The conversation highlights the difficulty in locating comprehensive resources for Fortran and the importance of peer support in overcoming learning obstacles.

I've recently stated using Fortran (I downloaded 'Silverfrost') and am hitting a block. I've learned the basics, but I can't find any more tutorials.

My professor (who I plan on doing research for) suggests that I get familiar with Fortran, especially integration of functions. I do not have the strongest comp-sci background, so if anyone knows of any websites, tutorials, or any type of guide out there for Fortran, I would appreciate some help; or even personal advice!

Obviously, being on the internet I've searched for one, but I haven't came back with much luck.
 
Technology news on Phys.org
you might try looking at the Open Source Physics website www.compadre.org/osp where they use java to do comp simulations of physics. There are sample simulations that integrate the equations of motion for pendulums and springs... that can give you an idea on how its done.
 
Hi MPKU.
I got the same condition. I have been doing searching for fortran tutorials for weeks n now I am using this book, https://www.amazon.com/dp/0073191574/?tag=pfamazon01-20.

I think it's quite good for not so advanced comp-sci background like us, I am aerospace major btw.

Did you need to order the book, or did you download it online?
 
Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'
I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
I tried a web search "the loss of programming ", and found an article saying that all aspects of writing, developing, and testing software programs will one day all be handled through artificial intelligence. One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
