Chapter 3.FORTRAN STATEMENTSThis section describes each of the Fortran statements supported by the PGI Fortran compilers.Each description includes a brief summary of the statement, a syntax description, a completedescription and an example. The statements are listed in alphabetical order. The first section liststerms that are used throughout the section.3.1. Statement Format OverviewThis section lists terms that are used throughout the section and provides information on howto interpret the information in the statement descriptions. This section only provides detaileddescriptions for statements that are extensions of the standard Fortran language definitions. Fordetails on the standard statements, refer to the Fortran language specifications readily availableon the internet. The Origin column in the tables in this section provides the Fortran languageorigin of the statement; for example F95 indicates the statement is from Fortran 95.3.1.1. Definition of Statement-related Termscharacter scalar memory referenceis a character variable, a character array element, or a character member of a structure orderived type.integer scalar memory referenceis an integer variable, an integer array element, or an integer member of a structure or derivedtype.logical scalar memory referenceis a logical variable, a logical array element, or a logical member of a structure or derivedtype.obsolescentThe statement is unchanged from the FORTRAN 77 definition but has a better replacement inFortran 95.3.1.2. Origin of StatementAt the top of each reference page is a brief description of the statement followed by a headerthat indicates the origin of the statement.
