What do the dots mean in the following code?
IF ((TAU.GE.dts).AND.(TAU.LE.(dts+dth))) THEN
a = b+c
END
Before Fortran90, the dots were required around operators. You can now use the >= instead of .GE. and <= instead of .LE.. Being one of the oldest languages, there are a lot of things still carried through and supported - spacing and operators are definitely among the more interesting features.
