See AlsoSELECT CASECHARACTER 90The CHARACTER statement establishes the data type of a variable by explicitly attaching thename of a variable to a character data type. This overrides the implication of data typing by theinitial letter of a symbolic name.SyntaxThe syntax for CHARACTER has two forms, the standard Fortran form and the PGI extendedform. This section describes both syntax forms.CHARACTER [character-selector] [, attribute-list ::] entity-listcharacter-selector the character selector specifies the length of the character string.This has one of several forms:([LEN=] type-param-value)* character-length [,]Character-selector also permits a KIND specification. Refer to the Fortran 95 Handbook for moresyntax details.attribute-listentity-listSyntax Extensionis the list of attributes for the character variable.is the list of defined entities.CHARACTER [*len][,] name [dimension] [*len] [/clist/], ...lennameclistDescriptionis a constant or *. A * is only valid if the corresponding name is adummy argument.is the symbolic name of a variable, array, or an array declarator (see theDIMENSION statement for an explanation of array declarators).is a list of constants that initialize the data, as in a DATA statement.Character type declaration statements may be used to dimension arrays explicitly in the same wayas the DIMENSION statement. Type declaration statements must not be labeled.§Fortran Statements 63
