Lines: 23 I have been forced to learn Fortran 77 for a course I am taking. I've been writting my f77 programs under VMS (v4.1) and am getting real tired of it, so I decided to give f77 under (4.2bsd) unix a try. What I ran into was an error about an unknown statement type. It turned out to be a do while statement of the form: DOWHILE(true) something borring ENDDO My question is: doesn't Unix (ANSI) f77 support a (do) while statement? What is it's syntax? -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Michael Cooper USENET: ...!{uscvax, sdcrdcf, engvax, | | Systems Programmer scgvaxd, smeagol}!oberon!mcooper | | University of Southern Cal.
