Fortran Constructs Supported When writing code fragments in Fortran, keep these guidelines in mind: Only enter one statement on a line. You cannot continue a statement onto more than one line. You can use GOTO, GO TO, ENDIF, and END IF statements; while ELSEIF is not allowed, you can use ELSE IF. Syntax is free-form. No column rules apply. You can enter comments in several formats. For example, you can use the following format: C I=I+1 /* I=I+1 J=J+1 ARRAY1(I,J)= I * J */ The space character is significant and is sometimes required. (Some Fortran 77 compilers ignore all space characters.) For example: Valid Invalid DO 100 I=1,10 DO100I=1,10 CALL RINGBELL CALL RING BELL X .EQ. 1 X.EQ.1
When writing code fragments in Fortran, keep these guidelines in mind:
C I=I+1 /* I=I+1 J=J+1 ARRAY1(I,J)= I * J */
