Fortran 95 vs fortran 2003

Perhaps you could add there should be a small note that the newest fortran is called fortran 2003, but most compilers implement fortran 95. As far as I can see the present article only described fortran 95... Nice article though.. :)

Article is a copy&paste from Metcalf's f90 tutorial

::There was no license provided on the linked page, so by default, there would be no right to re-use. Whereas Michael himself posted the content here, I would presume that the license he implicitly accepted via submission would carry.

:As User:Duja mentioned, Mike created this article himself. Mike discussed this a bit in a comp.lang.fortran posting at the time (Sept 29th, 2006), saying that it was based on tutorials of his which had no copyright problems. So if anyone has any doubts, use [http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.fortran?lnk=li&hl=en Google] to find the discussion in c.l.f. --Wws 14:42, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
