Assignment #5 will be graded by Monday.
Solutions for Assignments 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and the exam are available in the engineering library. Ask at the circulation desk for the binder for ``von Petersdorff''.
Problems with disk space when using Fortran 90: It seems that each time you use f90 -I$T program.f90 $T/kmn90.a a hidden file with a name like .__afsXXXX is generated which eats up your disk space. Type ls ._* to see those files and rm -i ._* to delete them.
Differential equation example programs: Fortran 90 program using sdriv290, Fortran 77 program using sdriv2
Typo in problem 2(a): It should be -v''(t) = 40 sin(v(t)), not -v''(t) = 40 v(t).
Fortran 90 versions of routines from textbook, including fzero90, snsqe90, sdriv290
Fortran 90 program with adaptive integration algorithm explained in class (try it out), results
Play with polynomial and spline interpolation

Using Fortran in MAPL/CMSC 460
Short Introduction to Fortran 90 (Fortran 77 version)
Passing variable size arrays to subroutines:
Fortran 90 example program (Fortran 77 version)
How to use functions as arguments:
Fortran 90 program (Fortran 77 version)
Fortran 90 versions of routines from textbook
Fortran 77 routines from the textbook (Kahaner, Moler, Nash)
Fortran 90 books:
- Ellis, Philips, Lahey: Fortran 90 Programming. (825 p.) Explains all features of Fortran 90 in detail with many complete example programs, including numerical analysis programs.
- Metcalf, Reid: The F Programming Language. (240 p.) Describes a subset of Fortran 90 which includes only the modern features of the language, without the redundant and obsolete features from Fortran 77 (which are still in Fortran 90 for compatiblity reasons).
