Fortran I/O
In Fortran's I/O system, data is stored and transferred among files. All I/O data sources and destinations are considered files.
Devices such as the screen, keyboard, and printer are external files, as are data files stored on a device such as a disk.
Variables in memory can also act as a file on a disk and are typically used to convert ASCII representations of numbers to binary form. When variables are used in this way, they are called internal files.
