Title	AD01, a Fortran 90 code for automatic differentiation
Contributors	JD Pryce, JK Reid (CCLRC Rutherford Appleton Lab.)
Abstract	We describe the design of a Fortran 90 code called AD01 for automatic differentiation. By changing the type of each independent variable and of each variable whose value depends on the independent variables and making a small number of other changes, the user can alter an existing code into one that calculates derivatives. Both the forward and backward methods are supported. With the forward method, any derivative may be found. With the backward method, first and second derivatives are available.
