  12. I am trying to make a catalog of folk wisdom in fortran programming. I already
  13. have a some theorems.  For example:
  14.         BAD           GOOD
  15. x = y/2.0          x=y*0.5
  16. a**5               (a*a)*(a*a)*a
  17. 2.0*x              x+x
  18.  
  19. I would appreciate any such words of wisdom you might have.
  20. I'll collect and broadcast a compilation.
