The problems in this code are too numerous to expend
the effort until you actual post code that has a just
to compile with any compiler.

You probably want that sentence back for a tune-up.

I swear I've seen the same content and coding style before, so I don't think
that the supplicant is the author.

A question for OP: what does stokes represent? What are you doing for the
next eighteen days?

I am not the original author and I am just trying to improve upon
someone's else code so that it works for stokes number between 0.1 and
2.0.

I am currently working full time as well as trying to finish school
simultaneously. I am trying my best to recompile the code taking into
consideration all the suggestions given by all of you and am trying to
figure how to proceed ahead (without much success) to make the program
work for stokes number between 0.1 and 2.0 within the next few days.

Stokes number is calculated using the formula (just giving a very
basic info for now)

Stokes = (2.0*RP)**2*RHO*UF/(6*PI*Nu*2.0*RF)

It varies according to the values of the input given.

Stokes number is defined in the program. The actual definition for
stokes is, it is ratio of the stopping distance of a particle to a
characteristic dimension of the obstacle.

In basic terms, its a way of measuring how good the program is..say
for example instead of saying that the code doesnt work for a certain
particle radius, we say it doesnt work for this particular stokes
number and we do this by putting the radius in the formula for stokes
number, calculate the stokes number (given the radius) and say that it
is not working (the program) for this particular stokes number..its
like a standard..in viscous flows

In program terms, i should be getting output of stokes between 0.1 and
2.0 for certain values of input but unfortunately i am not getting
that, am trying to figure out why. [Baffled]
