Programming Pitfalls: and how to avoid them
Introduction
numerics
examples include odd things with floating point convergence of an algo' optimisation flags to the compiler can change he results: Lorenz
save
problems with allocate. Would need to move to a higher level, but more problems if several routines use the same name
assumed-shape array arguments
useful for information hiding but you need an explicit interface (in the calling code) to make use of them
