Compile & run in Windows 7 (home)

AI Thread Summary
For individuals seeking to compile and run Fortran 90 programs on a Windows 7 platform, GFortran is recommended as a suitable option. It can be accessed through the GCC website, which provides the necessary tools for downloading and installation. Cygwin is also suggested as a viable environment, typically including GCC by default. Users can download Cygwin by clicking the setup.exe link on its official site, allowing for easy installation of additional libraries and compilers as needed. This approach is particularly beneficial for those unable to work due to disabilities, as it offers a free solution for programming needs.

Click the setup.exe link and save it. Any time you want to install new libraries, compilers, or tools, open setup.exe and select one of the mirrors, search for what you want to install, select it, and install. Very simple.
 
Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
