+Readers from the Fortran world are used to arrays stored in
+<dfn>column-major</dfn> order (sometimes called &ldquo;Fortran order&rdquo;).  This is
+essentially the exact opposite of row-major order in that, here, the
+<em>first</em> dimension's index varies most quickly.
+
+   <p>If you have an array stored in column-major order and wish to
+transform it using FFTW, it is quite easy to do.  When creating the
+plan, simply pass the dimensions of the array to the planner in
+<em>reverse order</em>.  For example, if your array is a rank three
+<code>N x M x L</code> matrix in column-major order, you should pass the
+dimensions of the array as if it were an <code>L x M x N</code> matrix
+(which it is, from the perspective of FFTW).  This is done for you
+<em>automatically</em> by the FFTW legacy-Fortran interface
+(see <a href="Calling-FFTW-from-Legacy-Fortran.html#Calling-FFTW-from-Legacy-Fortran">Calling FFTW from Legacy Fortran</a>), but you must do it
+manually with the modern Fortran interface (see <a href="Reversing-array-dimensions.html#Reversing-array-dimensions">Reversing array dimensions</a>).
