Data types
Any computer program in its most basic form:
• Loads data from memory
• does some operations using those data and
• stores data again in same or different locations
A simple example:
c=a+b
In Fortran, these memory locations have
an associated type i.e. a predefined way
to interpret the sequence of bits

Arithmetic Operators

Range and precision of basic datatypes


• integer : range +/- 2^31-1
• real : range +/- 10^38 with 7 digits
• real(8) : range +/- 10^308 with 15 digits

Loops
• Most common is do loop where you have a
counter to track the count
• Loop till some condition is met i.e. while loop
• There are other loops e.g. forall which we will
not cover here.

I/O using netcdf files

Scientific Computing Division


netcdf
• You may enquire structure of a netcdf file using
ncdump
• You will notice in the example program the typical
sequence of writing a netcdf file is:
(a) define a netcdf dataset
(b) define dimensions needed for variables
(c) define variables and finally
(d) write the variables.
• While reading you may enquire and find all the
dimension (or metadata) information unlike in case of
binary I/O.
• Also notice the filesizes which is closer to
corresponding binary file sizes.
