If you have downloaded FTN95 then you will find tutorials by running Plato and then looking at the Help menu. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7 then you will need to download win32hlp.exe from the internet.
The standard Fortran text book is by Metcalf and Reid. |

The Metcalf, Reid and Cohen books are good reference books, but not really aimed at a beginner in the language.
A reasonable start is the following book by Martin Counihan, which has lots of good examples in it for someone starting out and the additional virtue of being FREE:
