History of FORTRAN
  • Parent of all languages

3
More on FORTRAN
  • Still popular with scientists and engineers
    (moving towards F90)
  • Intended for mathematical applications/computation
  • FORmula TRANslator

4
Computer overview
  • CPU, monitor, keyboard, disk drives, mouse, CDs
  • Binary / machine language
  • Compilers vs. interpreters
  • I/O

5
Algorithmic development (control)
  • Three basic structures
  • Sequential
  • Selection
  • Repetition
  • Modular

6
Flowcharts
  • Graphical representation of algorithm
  • Examples

7
Exercise
  • Read radius print area and circumference
  • Find max, min, and range

8
Software Engineering
  • Classic Life Cycle
  • Problem analysis and specifications
  • Algorithm development
  • Program coding
  • Program execution and testing
  • Program maintenance

9
Errors
  • Syntactical vs. Semantic

World of UNIX
  • Type of operating system
  • Based upon C (useful to know when shell
    scripting)
  • Navigation commands
  • cd
  • cp
  • mv
  • find . -name ltname of filegt

11
UNIX and files
  • File info commands
  • ls, ls -l
  • more / less
  • head / tail
  • Printing
  • lp -dltprinternamegt ltfilenamegt

12
UNIX functions
  • Good-to-know UNIX functions
  • sort
  • history
  • convert
  • cal
  • chmod
  • grep
  • xv
