FollowFUN Training July 2023: Modern Fortran Basics
Introduction
NERSC is offering virtual hands-on training on modern Fortran basics on July 10-11, 2023. This event is organized by the Fortran Users of NERSC (FUN) Special Interest Group.
Fortran is adopted in many large scientific applications running on high-performance computers. This tutorial will provide you with the basics of Fortran programming, while highlighting its modern features and practices, including modern control constructs, modules/submodules, derived types, coarrays, Fortran package manager, and more. This training will also discuss common compiler error messages and how To fix them; how to convert legacy Fortran code to modern Fortran code. You'll learn how to write efficient modern Fortran code through this hands-on training with examples on Perlmutter.
ALCF and OLCF users are welcome to this training. NERSC training accounts will be provided if needed.
Date and Time: 9:00 am - 1:30 pm (Pacific time), July 10-11 (Mon-Tue), 2023
The format of this event will be online only.
Recordings can be found on YouTube.
