Great for programmers who are new to Fortran June 27, 2008
Kim Phifer
This book provides a basic outline of Fortran 77 for elementary programmers. I was previously only familiar with C++ (only one introductory class). This book helped me learn the basics of Fortran quickly and efficiently, but it does not cover any advanced topics.
Best for starters!! February 23, 2008

For Fortran beginners this would be a good friend of yours but using it with other books such as Introduction to Fortran or other published tutorials on the web would put the icing to the cake.I recommend 'Interractive fortran 77- A hands on Approach' by Ian D Chivers et al.-which is also an online book to supplement this book.In that way you will be kickin' some fortran.
 Very good book January 19, 2008

This is a very good book for those who does not know programming with fortran 77 but would like to learn it in a relatively short period of time. It is also a good reference for those who writes fortran 77 codes and in need of a source to have a quick look at programming rules and examples. I used this book to write codes for my simulations in my PhD study. I recommend it.
Good reference manual December 2, 2007

This is a good resource manual for Fortran code builders. It has the basic resources that define Fortran concepts and syntax. No programming book can address specific problems you might be working with in code design, but the better books give you the foundations and tips necessary to keep you on track when using the language. I have found this manual helpful as it helps build code that will compile under all later version compilers.
Buy it for what it is January 8, 2004

My undergrad mech. eng. program uses MATLAB exclusively and I now need to learn FORTRAN for graduate school in less than a week. Despite the low rating for this book and knowing that it may be too elementary, I picked it up anyways just because of my experience with Schaum's outline.Indeed, this book is very elementary and doesn't addresses some of the problems that I might need to solve. But this book is an OUTLINE of programming in FORTRAN. I consider myself an experienced programmer (not expert, just experienced) and I'm halfway through this book in an hour. It shows me all I need to know before I start exploring FORTRAN myself. Overall, I think this book works like the owner manual for your car. You read it once then put it aside for a couple of years. But for $17, I think this is a very good buy. It will show you what you need to know fast. Just don't expect it to do your laundry and cook your dinner (dorm life humor).
