The Computing Services Department of the University of Liverpool now offer their popular Fortran 90 and High Performance Fortran Courses in a new interactive Web-based HTML format. Both courses have a similar structure. A topic can be selected from the contents page which will display an overview of the selected subject. The user can then either follow a hypertext link to a more detailed explanation or, choose to attempt a programming exercise instead. After the user has finished the exercise, a solution may be viewed. In many cases the user can retrieve a solution template to help get started. Use of these courses for commercial purposes may be available upon request. The traditional paper-based versions of these courses have been used by many UK academic and research institutions and have received good reports - any feedback on the interactive HTML-based versions is strongly welcomed. The paper-based version are still available.
