khb@chiba.Eng.Sun.COM (Keith Bierman fpgroup) (12/18/90)
Seems to be shipping now. ISNB 0-19-853772-7.
As before, it provides the most lucid description of the language that
I've seen.
To be fair, wsb has a textbook more suited to the newly minted
programmer, to be trained in Fortran 90, and Miles Ellis has a
delightfully expansive tome for the newly minted FORTRAN '77 coder,
with nice appendix treatment of Fortran.
However, for most readers of this newsgroup, I recommend the Metcalf
and Reid book.
I hope that this is the last rev mandated by changes in the standard
(and suspect that the authors quite agree!).
