TN-16 : System specific programme inputs for documented Programmes

Abstract

FORTRAN is now used on all major computer systems. Major versions in vogue are FORTRAN, FORTRAN II and FORTRAN IV. Each new version made a few changes in the basic instruction of FORTRAN and included additional features.; A FORTRAN program developed for a particular computer can not be executed on other type of computers. To make it executable for other computers, some statements of the FORTRAN program are required to be modified according to the FORTRAN compiler of that computer.

This report described various modifications, necessary for successfully implementing a FORTRAN program on DEC-2050, PDP-11 and UNIVAC-1100 which has been developed on VAX-11 and vice versa.
