I neet to do a structured triangular mesh 2D of a complex geometry with FORTRAN
Can someone help me!

ok thank you :) I fixed it

You're going to have to explain a lot more about what you want to do.
ok, I have to do a mesh 2d for a specific geometry with Fortran, have you any reference or cite can help me to do that

It's still not clear what your task is.

Are you trying to write a Fortran program to generate a 2-D mesh? What sort of starting information would you be working with? What sort of output are you looking for, in addition to the coordinates of the nodal points of the mesh?

As a general rule, when writing a computer program, regardless of the language used, it is always a good idea to

1. Formulate a clear and detailed specification for what tasks the program is intended to accomplish
2. List the input information which the user will be expected to furnish
3. Describe the output results expected.
 
I presume this has been done before, for example, take a look at this page listing many kinds of program; entry 693, for example, sounds like the kind of thing you are looking for, then entries starting at item 769 regarding triangulation...

The above references may be too much for you...you request is so vague it tends to reveal quite a bit of inexperience.

Are you supposed to implement this program for the purpose of learning? Or are you supposed to just get it done for whatever purpose?
 
thank you for your answers, I work with the method control volume finite element method and I need to do with fortran the mesh 2d to specific geometry, (I found the mesh for on ordinary geometry, but not a complex geometry)
so the output that I need is the coordinates of the nodal points of the mesh
