# Fortran Cheatsheet ## Overview of unique features - High-performance programming language - Designed for scientific and engineering applications - Supports array operations and linear algebra - Uses verbose syntax - Can be used for numerical simulations and modeling ## Variables ```fortran PROGRAM MYPROGRAM IMPLICIT NONE INTEGER :: X = 42 REAL :: Y PARAMETER (MYCONST = 10) INTEGER, DIMENSION(3) :: MYARRAY = [1, 2, 3] END PROGRAM MYPROGRAM ``` ## Functions ```fortran FUNCTION ADD(X, Y) IMPLICIT NONE INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: X, Y ADD = X + Y END FUNCTION ADD PROGRAM MYPROGRAM IMPLICIT NONE INTEGER :: RESULT RESULT = ADD(3, 4) END PROGRAM MYPROGRAM ``` ## Loops ```fortran DO I = 1, 10 ! do something END DO DO WHILE (CONDITION) ! do something END DO ``` ## Conditionals ```fortran IF (X > Y) THEN ! do something ELSE ! do something else END IF ``` ## Array operations ```fortran REAL, DIMENSION(3) :: X = [1.0, 2.0, 3.0] REAL, DIMENSION(3) :: Y = [4.0, 5.0, 6.0] ! Element-wise addition X = X + Y ! Element-wise multiplication X = X * Y ! Dot product DOT_PRODUCT = DOT_PRODUCT(X, Y) ``` ## Resources - [Fortran documentation](https://fortran-lang.org/learn/) - [Fortran tutorial](https://www.tutorialspoint.com/fortran/index.htm) - [Fortran forum](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/fortran) for community support and troubleshooting.
