[comp.lang.fortran] Microsoft Fortran I/O

kiefer@uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu (Nick Kiefer) (10/20/89)

Would someone please send me an example of how to do free-format READ
and WRITE statements of real number variables using the standard i/o
files (keyboard and screen) with Microsoft Fortran.  I have a friend
using this compiler for a class (blindly), and everytime we try to
read in real numbers using READ (*,*), we get 1.0 in every variable.
Strange.  Thank you, Nick
