I little too basic, skips the explanation of function syntax (like read()'s) but quite good overall. There was a long video (23m) in which he explains too many concepts without delving into syntax details... I had to look for a more formal document on the subjects explained in order to understand the syntax, the optionable keywords, the concepts and the like, so as to be able to build the assignment.

I'm a Software Developer and Consultant focusing on Fortran. I've got over 8 years of experience working on large and complicated, high-performance Fortran programs, and I'm proficient in nearly a dozen other programming languages. I've got experience in DevOps, testing, build systems, and software architecture. I've created an open source testing framework for Fortran, and a handful of other open source libraries for Fortran.
