IRand Intrinsic
...............

     IRand(FLAG)

IRand: `INTEGER(KIND=1)' function.

FLAG: `INTEGER'; OPTIONAL; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Intrinsic groups: `unix'.

Description:

   Returns a uniform quasi-random number up to a system-dependent limit.
If FLAG is 0, the next number in sequence is returned; if FLAG is 1,
the generator is restarted by calling the UNIX function `srand(0)'; if
FLAG has any other value, it is used as a new seed with `srand()'.

   *Note SRand Intrinsic::.

   _Note:_ As typically implemented (by the routine of the same name in
the C library), this random number generator is a very poor one, though
the BSD and GNU libraries provide a much better implementation than the
`traditional' one.  On a different system you almost certainly want to
use something better.

STATUS argument is supplied, it contains 0 on success or a non-zero
error code upon return.  See `kill(2)'.

   Some non-GNU implementations of Fortran provide this intrinsic as
only a function, not as a subroutine, or do not support the (optional)
STATUS argument.

Len Intrinsic
.............

     Len(STRING)

Len: `INTEGER(KIND=1)' function.

STRING: `CHARACTER'; scalar.

Intrinsic groups: (standard FORTRAN 77).

Description:

   Returns the length of STRING.

   If STRING is an array, the length of an element of STRING is
returned.

   Note that STRING need not be defined when this intrinsic is invoked,
since only the length, not the content, of STRING is needed.

   *Note Bit_Size Intrinsic::, for the function that determines the
size of its argument in bits.


File: g77.info,  Node: Len_Trim Intrinsic,  Next: LGe Intrinsic,  Prev: Len Intrinsic,  Up: Table of Intrinsic Functions

Len_Trim Intrinsic
..................

     Len_Trim(STRING)

Len_Trim: `INTEGER(KIND=1)' function.

STRING: `CHARACTER'; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Intrinsic groups: `f90'.

Description:

   Returns the index of the last non-blank character in STRING.

File: g77.info,  Node: LGe Intrinsic,  Next: LGt Intrinsic,  Prev: Len_Trim Intrinsic,  Up: Table of Intrinsic Functions

LGe Intrinsic
.............

     LGe(STRING_A, STRING_B)

LGe: `LOGICAL(KIND=1)' function.

STRING_A: `CHARACTER'; scalar; INTENT(IN).

STRING_B: `CHARACTER'; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Intrinsic groups: (standard FORTRAN 77).

Description:

   Returns `.TRUE.' if `STRING_A.GE.STRING_B', `.FALSE.' otherwise.
STRING_A and STRING_B are interpreted as containing ASCII character
codes.  If either value contains a character not in the ASCII character
set, the result is processor dependent.

   If the STRING_A and STRING_B are not the same length, the shorter is
compared as if spaces were appended to it to form a value that has the
same length as the longer.

   The lexical comparison intrinsics `LGe', `LGt', `LLe', and `LLt'
differ from the corresponding intrinsic operators `.GE.', `.GT.',
`.LE.', `.LT.'.  Because the ASCII collating sequence is assumed, the
following expressions always return `.TRUE.':

     LGE ('0', ' ')
     LGE ('A', '0')
     LGE ('a', 'A')

   The following related expressions do _not_ always return `.TRUE.',
as they are not necessarily evaluated assuming the arguments use ASCII
encoding:

     '0' .GE. ' '
     'A' .GE. '0'
     'a' .GE. 'A'

   The same difference exists between `LGt' and `.GT.'; between `LLe'
and `.LE.'; and between `LLt' and `.LT.'.

STRING_A and STRING_B are interpreted as containing ASCII character
codes.  If either value contains a character not in the ASCII character
set, the result is processor dependent.

   If the STRING_A and STRING_B are not the same length, the shorter is
compared as if spaces were appended to it to form a value that has the
same length as the longer.

   *Note LGe Intrinsic::, for information on the distinction between
the `LGT' intrinsic and the `.GT.' operator.

(`CHAR(0)') marks the end of the names in PATH1 and PATH2--otherwise,
trailing blanks in PATH1 and PATH2 are ignored.  If the STATUS argument
is supplied, it contains 0 on success or a non-zero error code upon
return.  See `link(2)'.

   Some non-GNU implementations of Fortran provide this intrinsic as
only a function, not as a subroutine, or do not support the (optional)
STATUS argument.

SHIFT: `INTEGER'; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Intrinsic groups: `f2c'.

Description:

   Although similar to the expression `I*(2**SHIFT)', there are
important differences.  For example, the sign of the result is not
necessarily the same as the sign of I.

   Currently this intrinsic is defined assuming the underlying
representation of I is as a two's-complement integer.  It is unclear at
this point whether that definition will apply when a different
representation is involved.

   *Note LShift Intrinsic::, for the inverse of this function.

left-shifting intrinsic that is also more precisely defined.

Description:

   Obtains data about the given file FILE and places them in the array
SARRAY.  A null character (`CHAR(0)') marks the end of the name in
FILE--otherwise, trailing blanks in FILE are ignored.  If FILE is a
symbolic link it returns data on the link itself, so the routine is
available only on systems that support symbolic links.  The values in
this array are extracted from the `stat' structure as returned by
`fstat(2)' q.v., as follows:

  1. Device ID

  2. Inode number

  3. File mode

  4. Number of links

  5. Owner's uid

is not relevant, it is returned as 0.

   If the STATUS argument is supplied, it contains 0 on success or a
non-zero error code upon return (`ENOSYS' if the system does not
provide `lstat(2)').

   Some non-GNU implementations of Fortran provide this intrinsic as
only a function, not as a subroutine, or do not support the (optional)
STATUS argument.

     MClock()

MClock: `INTEGER(KIND=1)' function.

Intrinsic groups: `unix'.

Description:

   Returns the number of clock ticks since the start of the process.
Supported on systems with `clock(3)' (q.v.).

   This intrinsic is not fully portable, such as to systems with 32-bit
`INTEGER' types but supporting times wider than 32 bits.  Therefore,
the values returned by this intrinsic might be, or become, negative, or
numerically less than previous values, during a single run of the
compiled program.

   *Note MClock8 Intrinsic::, for information on a similar intrinsic
that might be portable to more GNU Fortran implementations, though to
fewer Fortran compilers.

   If the system does not support `clock(3)', -1 is returned.

     MClock8()

MClock8: `INTEGER(KIND=2)' function.

Intrinsic groups: `unix'.

Description:

   Returns the number of clock ticks since the start of the process.
Supported on systems with `clock(3)' (q.v.).

   _Warning:_ this intrinsic does not increase the range of the timing
values over that returned by `clock(3)'.  On a system with a 32-bit
`clock(3)', `MCLOCK8' will return a 32-bit value, even though converted
to an `INTEGER(KIND=2)' value.  That means overflows of the 32-bit
value can still occur.  Therefore, the values returned by this intrinsic
might be, or become, negative, or numerically less than previous values,
during a single run of the compiled program.

   No Fortran implementations other than GNU Fortran are known to
support this intrinsic at the time of this writing.  *Note MClock
Intrinsic::, for information on a similar intrinsic that might be
portable to more Fortran compilers, though to fewer GNU Fortran
implementations.

   If the system does not support `clock(3)', -1 is returned.

     Real(A)

Real: `REAL' function.  The exact type is `REAL(KIND=1)' when argument
A is any type other than `COMPLEX', or when it is `COMPLEX(KIND=1)'.
When A is any `COMPLEX' type other than `COMPLEX(KIND=1)', this
intrinsic is valid only when used as the argument to `REAL()', as
explained below.

A: `INTEGER', `REAL', or `COMPLEX'; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Intrinsic groups: (standard FORTRAN 77).

Description:

   Converts A to `REAL(KIND=1)'.

   Use of `REAL()' with a `COMPLEX' argument (other than
`COMPLEX(KIND=1)') is restricted to the following case:

     REAL(REAL(A))

This expression converts the real part of A to `REAL(KIND=1)'.

   *Note RealPart Intrinsic::, for information on a GNU Fortran
intrinsic that extracts the real part of an arbitrary `COMPLEX' value.

     RealPart(Z)

RealPart: `REAL' function, the `KIND=' value of the type being that of

Z: `COMPLEX'; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Intrinsic groups: `gnu'.

Description:

   The real part of Z is returned, without conversion.

   _Note:_ The way to do this in standard Fortran 90 is `REAL(Z)'.
However, when, for example, Z is `COMPLEX(KIND=2)', `REAL(Z)' means
something different for some compilers that are not true Fortran 90
compilers but offer some extensions standardized by Fortran 90 (such as
the `DOUBLE COMPLEX' type, also known as `COMPLEX(KIND=2)').

   The advantage of `REALPART()' is that, while not necessarily more or
less portable than `REAL()', it is more likely to cause a compiler that
doesn't support it to produce a diagnostic than generate incorrect code.

the end of the names in PATH1 and PATH2--otherwise, trailing blanks in
PATH1 and PATH2 are ignored.  See `rename(2)'.  If the STATUS argument
is supplied, it contains 0 on success or a non-zero error code upon
return.

STATUS argument.

important differences.  For example, the sign of the result is
undefined.

representation of I is as a two's-complement integer.  It is unclear at
this point whether that definition will apply when a different
representation is involved.
