Training

One of the goals of HiPeCC is to make sure that all users have the tools they need to achieve the best results.  We will at any time work with individual users to help in their computing needs.  This help can be at any level from basic UNIX to the parallelization of existing programs.  Also see our online tutorials for self help.

FORTRAN          (click on link for syllabus)

An Introduction to Programming with Fortran 90 is designed for the those with no previous programming experience who wish to learn the basics of computing using Fortran 90. The most useful language constructs are covered and at the end of the course attendees should be able to write fairly complex programs. The course divided into 6 x 1/2 day sessions:
    Fundamentals Of Computer Programming,
    Introduction to Fortran 90,
    Control Constructs and Intrinsics,
    Arrays,
    Procedures and Modules
    Derived Types

The Six Session Course Programming in Fortran 90 is designed for the those with programming experience in a high-level language who wish to be primed in the Fortran 90 language. The most useful language constructs are covered in detail and virtually all features are described to some degree. The course divided into 6 x 1/2 day sessions:
    Introduction,
    Control Constructs and Intrinsics,
    Arrays,
    Procedures,
    Modules and Derived Types
    Object-based Programming (Modules)
