GNU Info (g77-295.info)Better List-directed I/OBetter List-directed I/O ------------------------ Values output using list-directed I/O (`PRINT *, R, D') should be written with a field width, precision, and so on appropriate for the type (precision) of each value. (Currently, no distinction is made between single-precision and double-precision values by `libf2c'.) It is likely this item will require the `libg77' project to be undertaken. In the meantime, use of formatted I/O is recommended. While it might be of little consolation, `g77' does support `FORMAT(F<WIDTH>.4)', for example, as long as `WIDTH' is defined as a named constant (via `PARAMETER'). That at least allows some compile-time specification of the precision of a data type, perhaps controlled by preprocessing directives. automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
