Hi guys...

How we can get a file length in FORTRAN.

Assume we have a file data
file1.dat
12
14
3
4
67
89
54
47

How can we get the length of file1.dat

Do you mean file size or number of numbers or number of lines in the file?

What i mean is in that file1.dat there are 8 lines data, how i'm going to get it in FORTRAN.

It is not possible to find out how many lines of data there are when you open a file. You could perform reads to count it and then rewind and re-read the data or if you are on unix and put the result of "wc -l file1.dat" into a file, you could read that file to find out how many lines are in file1.dat.
