"mod" is a protected word (implicit function in fortran) call the program something else

goddamn if that same error wasted me a good 5 hours over the course of my fortran writing sessions. I'd whip up a short "test" program to see if an equation or two were correct, and i'd always name them something that the compiler would trip over. Spend a hour beating my head against the desk; spend 3 seconds renaming it.

finally just finished the final proj for fortran, i know a lot of the things i did in it were i guess the really long way to do it, but i dont care, it all works, 3000 lines for an RSA decryption program haha

what class is that for?

4/15/2008 1:07:07 PM

fortran is the language for people with real problems.

its for basic fortran class, csc 112. and btw after looking in the book for the class for the first time this yr, i just replaces 2000 lines of my code with 1 line, made me feel real smart...so glad its over haha.

This is true on so many levels.

I use fortran all the time here at NASA.

Good thing I taught fortran for a while when I was at NCSU, I know it like the back of my hand.
