Two of my ex-professors, J. Winston Crawley and Charles E. Miller have just put out a book on Fortran programming which I consider very good. The book is primarily meant to be used as an introductory instructional text rather than a reference text. It emphasises good programming concepts (structure, modularity, documentation, etc.) but still presents a good workable understanding of the Fortran language. I'm not familiar enough with Fortran77 to say it exhaustively covers the language. Anyone having interest in or need of such a book should check it out. Sorry but I don't have the book with me right now and the exact title currently escapes me. The authors and subject should be enough for you to locate it. If not, contact me and I'll get you the exact title. Wish SSC, oops I mean SUP (or is it just SU) was on the net. Tim Davidheiser AT&T Bell Labs, Columbus, Ohio (614)860-2600
