New page

f2c (fortran-2-c) is a library which allows the conversion of Fortran code into C code. It comes in really handy if you're not a Fortran person and you're given a Fortran code to deal with.

Copy and paste this into a script file, say, <code>build.sh</code>. Then make the build script executable:

<pre>
$ chmod +x build.sh
</pre>

and run the build script (you have to be the superuser, or else you have to go through the script and replace all the <code>/bin</code> and <code>/usr/bin</code> stuff with your own directories - if you do that, don't forget to add the location to your path!)

Finally, to ensure you've installed it OK, type:

<pre>
$ which f2c
</pre>

and it should tell you where it's at.
