::::Agreed. I changed the task to explicitly ask about this storage order: it is not specific to Fortran, and whatever the convention may be, it has to be known in order to use the language correctly, for cross-language calls, memory cache optimization and possibly for disk storage if the memory is mapped directly to a file.
::::Anyway, what was written was wrong, and I don't think it's a good thing to have wrong comments on a site supposed to be useful for students, in a task supposed to be tricky to newcomers. It's still far too lengthy to my state, by the way. Looks like an old-timerstimer enjoys remembering the goold old times of uppercase programs limited to 72 columns. But all of this is obsolete and unlikely to be of any use to a new Fortran programmer, or to a C programmer trying to call a Fortran library.
