Do you really mean "command line" here, as in "command line parameter". Or are you actually inquiring about reading (and comparing) strings.
character(20) name
print "(a$)", 'Enter your name> '
read *, name
if (name == 'uart') print *,'Cool name dude.'
DDDDDDDDDDDD Thank you so much.Fortran is a high-level programming language used primarily for scientific and engineering applications. It stands for "Formula Translation" and was originally developed by IBM in the 1950s.
In order to input words, also known as strings, in Fortran, you need to use the CHARACTER data type. This data type allows you to store and manipulate strings of characters, such as words or sentences, in your program.
Yes, you can mix words and numbers in Fortran. As mentioned before, you can use the CHARACTER data type for words and the INTEGER or REAL data types for numbers. You can also convert between these data types using built-in functions.
To read input words from the user, you can use the READ statement and specify the CHARACTER data type. This will prompt the user to enter a string of characters and store it in a variable that you can then use in your program.
Yes, you can use words as variables in Fortran. However, there are some restrictions on what characters can be used in variable names. They must start with a letter and can only contain letters, numbers, and underscores. Additionally, some words are reserved keywords in Fortran and cannot be used as variable names.
