In this introduction to Fortran 90 and its later updates we will be looking at what exactly it is that makes Fortran still such a good choice today, as well as how to get started with it.

Dr. Rader currently focuses his research in the areas of nonlinear 0-1 optimization, computational integer programming, and exam time timetabling.

It covers basic algorithm design techniques such as divide and conquer, dynamic programming, and greedy algorithms. It concludes with a brief introduction to intractability (NP-completeness) .
