Fortran - Errors and error handling - Part 1 - Exploration

Read Original

This article examines error handling in Fortran, which lacks exceptions. It explains using intrinsic procedures with `iostat` arguments and discusses naive error-ignoring approaches in user-written functions, using examples like file operations and array averaging. It sets the stage for future articles on functional programming-inspired error handling techniques.
