Abstract

The facilities needed to do simple input and output tasks are described in Chapter 1, and many examples of these statements were discussed throughout the other chapters. Sometimes it is necessary to use the more sophisticated input/output features of Fortran, which are probably superior to those found in most other high-level languages. This chapter describes these features in some detail, including direct access input/output, nonadvancing input/output, unformatted input/output, the use of internal files, stream input/output, asynchronous input/output, file connection statements, the inquire statement, file positioning statements, and formatting.
