[Fortran Tuto 5] Do Loops

[@jaibhimadevi5805]

Fun fact: In the 60's, scientists and engineers who would keep advancing/adding to their degrees while working were nicknamed "do loopers" thanks to the prevalence of FORTRAN.

its funny that you are talking about science and look at your profile name, typical Indian scholars. we will sent a rocket to moon with rituals..

[@abhinavrs5072]

I would like to know if the working is different between f90 and f95. The way you used -ve numbers are not working in f90. Not showing any errors but not computing anything.

[@gunjanrajendraramteke1417]

can u please elaborate the various applications of do loop

[@Feaforall]

There’s too many applications to really elaborate on it... a conditional loop is a very basic language structure. Basically, whenever you want to do something special if a variable takes a certain parameter you use such a loop.

Want to know bisection method in fortran?

[@mathematicsforphysics6882]

refer Rajaramans book on numerical method.

can u plz tell how to execute do loop in windows ?

[@PhysicistSouravDas]

You have to download Fortran compiler for Windows (32-bit or 64-bit). Download from www.equation.com/servlet/equation.cmd?fa=fortran It will be installed within your system, and you can just write and run any program just like Cyprien does here. Just write the FORTRAN program in any editor (Notepad, Notepad++, VS Code etc) then save as .f90 or .f95. Then compile and run your program using "Command Prompt" or "PowerShell". It's very easy. Comment again if you encounter any problem, I or anybody else will surely help you.
