CS 342 Lecture -*- Outline -*-

* What to look for in the FORTRAN discussion

** major advances
		subroutines, algebraic notation
** foundation for later developments
		goto-oriented control structure, common blocks,
		subroutines
** machine dependence
		only compound data structure is array (like memory)
		names bound statically
		control resembles machine branches
		card-oriented fixed-format syntax
			(Why is free format better?)
** unstructured
		no nesting
		linear arrangement of statements
** irregular
		many limitations (number of array indexes, chars in var names)
