GNU Info (g77-295.info)Double Quote MeaningMeaning of Double Quote ----------------------- `g77' treats double-quote (`"') as beginning an octal constant of `INTEGER(KIND=1)' type when the `-fvxt' option is specified. The form of this octal constant is "OCTAL-DIGITS where OCTAL-DIGITS is a nonempty string of characters in the set `01234567'. For example, the `-fvxt' option permits this: PRINT *, "20 END The above program would print the value `16'. Note: Integer Type, for information on the preferred construct for integer constants specified using GNU Fortran's octal notation. (In the GNU Fortran language, the double-quote character (`"') delimits a character constant just as does apostrophe (`''). There is no way to allow both constructs in the general case, since statements like `PRINT *,"2000 !comment?"' would be ambiguous.) automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
