Use one-line-if when possible in "Operators and Control Flow"
Fortran's one-line-if is convenient and concise, and I think it should be used when possible in the tutorial.
At https://fortran-lang.org/learn/quickstart/operators_control_flow , after showing
if (angle < 90.0) then
print *, 'Angle is acute'
end if
I think it should be added that the following is equivalent:
if (angle < 90.0) print *, 'Angle is acute'
Then the one-line-if should be used in later examples:
integer :: i
do i=1, 100
if (i > 10) then
exit ! Stop printing numbers
end if
print *, i
end do
integer :: i
do i=1,10
if (mod(i,2) == 0) then
cycle ! Don't print even numbers
end if
print *, i
end do
integer :: i,j
outer_loop: do i=1,10
inner_loop: do j=1,10
if ((j+i) > 10) then ! Print only pairs of i and j that add up to 10
cycle outer_loop ! Go to the next iteration of the outer loop
end if
print *, 'I=', i, ' J=', j, ' Sum=', j+i
end do inner_loop
end do outer_loop
