The F programming language is a dramatic new development in scientific programming. Building on the well established strengths of the Fortran family of languages, it retains the powerful numerical and data abstraction capabilities of its parent language, Fortran 90. This book is the defining document for the language, setting out the complete syntax and semantics of F in a readable but thorough way. It begins with an introductory chapter, then describes the features of F: language elements, expressions and assignments, control constructs, program units and procedures, array features, intrinsic procedures and input/output facilities. It is essential reading for all F practitioners.

A very good introductory guide to Fortran 90. A sufficient number of carefully chosen examples makes this book very useful as a textbook for studying Fortran as a first programming language.Zentrallblatt fur Mathematik
The book iswell written, it is a n easily manageable size and by no means a daunting prospect. For those who are teaching or studying programming using F it is indispensable. Scientific Computing World
