Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around a request for assistance in programming a solution to a math problem using Fortran 95. Participants are seeking to clarify the specifics of the problem and the user's current programming skills and experience.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Exploratory

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests a link to the program but does not provide details on the math problem.
  • Another participant asks for more specific information regarding the user's objectives and current progress.
  • A different participant emphasizes the need for the user to clarify their situation, including what they have attempted and the specific challenges they face.
  • The user reiterates the need to write a program to solve a math problem but admits to lacking skill in Fortran.
  • Participants suggest that the user provide details about input and expected output, and question whether Fortran is the only programming language they are considering.
  • One participant proposes starting with basic programming concepts, such as verifying the functionality of a Fortran compiler and writing simple programs to build foundational skills.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that more information is needed from the user to provide effective assistance. There is no consensus on the specifics of the math problem or the user's programming capabilities.

Contextual Notes

Limitations include the lack of detail about the math problem itself, the user's current level of programming knowledge, and the absence of any attempts made in Fortran thus far.

Who May Find This Useful

Individuals interested in learning Fortran programming, particularly in the context of solving mathematical problems or seeking help with programming assignments.

Could you be more specific?
 
Before anyone can help you, you have to help yourself a bit. What are you trying to do? What have you done already? What problems are you experiencing? Etc.
 
The question is :
Write a program that will calculate the answer to this math problem.



I'm not skillful in Fortran
 
You need to provide greater detail in describing your objective. Provide details of the input, for example. Describe the expected output as well. Is Fortran your only issue? Could you do the assignment if you used a programming language of your choice? If you have zero programming knowledge, what manual steps would you have to do to arrive at the result?

Then start right at the beginning.

- Do you currently have a functioning Fortran compiler.

- Can you (have you) written something like a "hello word" program to verify you have the very basics of a program outline understood.

- Can you write any simple program, say to input two numbers and display their sum and product.

You've got to give us some idea or where you are currently at with Fortran, more than what you're so far given us which is basically "this is what I've got to do and I know nothing".
