I am trying to make a small code snippet in Fortran 90 to read in a file name from the user, and I know that it should be simple, but I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
The script is:
program test
implicit none
Character (Len = 15) :: filename
Write(*,*) 'Input file name'
Read(*,*) filename
Write(*,*) 'So the file is called',filename
end program test
And then I compile it on an ubuntu system using gfortran:
$ gfortran test.f90 -o test.exe
It compiles fine, but when I run ./test.exe, I get the following output:
$ ./test.exe
Input file name
At line 6 of file test.f90 (unit = 5, file = 'stdin')
Fortran runtime error: End of file
Error termination. Backtrace:
#0 0x7f435e83b32a
when what I was expecting to get was:
$ ./test.exe
Input file name
[program pauses while user inputs text]
So the file is called [text the user inputted]
I just can't seem to find an example of this error or how to fix it online. Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong here?
