I’ve got a couple of courses available if you’re willing to spend a little money. Online Courses But as already mentioned, fortran-lang.org has some good free content.

You’ll find the prevailing style in Fortran quite different from F#, but there are some aspects of Fortran that are amenable to functional programming techniques. I have adopted a reasonably functional style in most of my open source libraries.

Welcome to the forum and good luck with your forays into the world of Fortran. Don’t hesitate to come back here asking questions as you’re learning.
