Fortran 95 language features

This is an overview of Fortran 95 language features. Included are the additional features of TR-15581:Enhanced Data Type Facilities, which have been universally implemented. Old features that have been superseded by new ones are not described – few of those historic features are used in modern programs although most have been retained in the language to maintain backward compatibility. The current standard is Fortran 2023; many of its new features are still being implemented in compilers. The additional features of Fortran 2003, Fortran 2008, Fortran 2018 and Fortran 2023 are described by Metcalf, Reid, Cohen and Bader.
