Online and HLRS, Room 0.439 / Rühle Saal University of Stuttgart Nobelstraße 19 70569 Stuttgart, Germany
The course teaches the newest Fortran standards. Hands-on sessions will allow users to immediately test and understand the language constructs. This workshop provides scientific training in Computational Science from beginners' to advanced level, and in addition, the scientific exchange of the participants among themselves and with the instructors.
Prerequisites:
- Familiarity with Linux and Linux editors is recommended.
- Basics/principles of programming (in any language).
- Basic mathematics (integration and differentiation)
Content levels:
- Basic: 13 hours
- Intermediate: 18 hours
- Advanced: 2 hours
Agenda
Topics to be covered in this course include:
- Fortran syntax overview
- Basics
- Program units, modules, procedures
- Dynamic data
- Input and Output
- Fortran intrinsics
- Obsolete features of Fortran
- Multiple source files
- Compilers for Fortran and their usage
- Optimization of single processor performance
- Features of Fortran 2003, 2008 and 2018
Please find the preliminary program of the course here (December 2023 course). All times CEST.
Lunch Breaks
We plan to have lunch in the unversity's canteen (Mensa Stuttgart-Vaihingen, have a look at their menu online). Two other near possibilities for lunch are on all days:
- A food truck from 11:00-14:00, see "Allmandring 35" at https://www.uni-stuttgart.de/universitaet/aktuelles/meldungen/Food-Trucks-am-Campus-Vaihingen/, approximately 300 m from HLRS,
- Bakery Sehne, near bus stop "Im Lauchhau", approximately 400 m from HLRS.
We will update this information if opening times etc. change and inform you more precisely before the course starts.
Hybrid course
This course will be hybrid, i.e. it will take place at HLRS on-site but it will also be possible to attend online. Participants, online as well as on-site, have to be aware and agree that they might appear in the live video stream taken by a camera in the back of the lecture room or by a webcam on laptops. The live stream will not be saved. We strongly recommend to attend this course on-site since on-site attendance is much more effective and efficient in our experience. Therefore we might give priority to on-site over online participants during registration.

Registration closes on April 14, 2024.
