Fortran 77

[Lionel Pinkhard <lionelpi@mweb.co.za>]

Hi,

This may be a *little* off-topic, but can somebody please tell me what I can use in Fortran 77 to get input from the keyboard? Silly question, I know, but I haven't used Fortran much. Here's a simple example situation:

	10	program inputkey
	20	implicit none
	30	integer number
	40	print*, 'enter a number: '
	50	|| procedure to get input ||
	60	print*, 'number is ', number
	70	end 

The function I'm looking for is something like 'scanf("%d", &number);' in C/C++.

Also, is there a way I can use Asm code in F77 (inline, without linking of course)? Next time I have trouble I'll use this way out. :-)

I tried lots of words, but I couldn't work out how to get input, so any ideas anybody?

Thanks in advance,

Lionel Pinkhard
