everyone.. I’m not a complete noob to linux, I’m using Fedora 16, but I’ve always had difficulty compiling programs from the command line and I would really like to learn how to do it the right way. I’ve had experience with Python, Ruby, Perl, PHP, Lua, bash and other languages, recently I’ve getting into Fortran code and here’s the problem: Every time I run the f77 command with an option and filename, I get one of the following errors:
[code]
[Eddie_Nygma@localhost ~]$ f77 -S #classicpayroll.f#
f77: no input files
[Eddie_Nygma@localhost ~]$ f77 -o #classicpayroll.f#
f77: argument to `-o’ missing [/code]
I really need to get this compiled and running for my cs class, somebody please help me out, could it possibly be some sort of a a syntax error or how do I correct it?
I used fortran long ago.
In fortran, the first letter in file name shuold be A-Z or a-z.
number or # is not allowed
