Contents

Name

f90_kind - Module providing useful KIND number parameters

Usage

USE F90_KIND

Synopsis

Parameters
SINGLE, DOUBLE, QUAD, REAL32, REAL64, REAL128, INT8, INT16, INT32, INT64, BYTE, TWOBYTE, WORD, ASCII.

Parameter Description

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: SINGLE
(This is equivalent to leaving the KIND selector off entirely). 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: DOUBLE
REAL/COMPLEX kind selector for real and complex types requiring double precision. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: QUAD
REAL/COMPLEX kind selector for real and complex types with four times default precision. This is not available on all systems. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: REAL32
REAL/COMPLEX kind selector for real and complex types with at least 32 bits precision. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: REAL64
REAL/COMPLEX kind selector for real and complex types with at least 64 bits precision. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: REAL128

REAL/COMPLEX kind selector for real and complex types with at least 128 bits precision. This is not available on all systems. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: INT8
INTEGER kind selector for integer types with at least 8 bits of precision. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: INT16
INTEGER kind selector for integer types with at least 16 bits of precision. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: INT32
INTEGER kind selector for integer types with at least 32 bits of precision. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: INT64
INTEGER kind selector for integer types with at least 64 bits of precision. This is not available on all systems. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: BYTE
LOGICAL kind selector for logical types occupying only one byte of memory. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: TWOBYTE
LOGICAL kind selector for logical types occupying the same space as INTEGER(INT16) entities. 

  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: WORD
LOGICAL kind selector for default logical type. 
  INTEGER,PARAMETER :: ASCII
CHARACTER kind selector for the ASCII character set.
