She has limited experience with compiled languages. The weather and climate code she will be working on is written in Fortran. She thought Fortran was a dead language.

They have extensive experience with C and C++ and have been told there are differences between Fortran and C/C++ that they should be aware of. They are keen to learn Fortran but must fit their learning inbetween teaching duties and other research commitments.

Malak needs to use Fortran to prototype his new routines which will interface with other Fortran code. Malak has been told by his supervisor that he should set up his preferred text editor for Fortran development.

They have been asked to update legacy code to modern standards, including implementing some form of testing and using standard libraries. Joe is not sure if there is a standard code style that they can adopt.

 ## Pathways
 
 This course is merely an introduction to modern Fortran, and most learners will also want to take the Intermediate Modern Fortran course. If you work on HPC code you may also find the ARCHER2 MPI and OpenMP courses linked below useful.
