     Int8(A)

Int8: `INTEGER(KIND=2)' function.

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

Intrinsic groups: `gnu'.

Description:

   Returns A with the fractional portion of its magnitude truncated and
its sign preserved, converted to type `INTEGER(KIND=2)'.

   If A is type `COMPLEX', its real part is truncated and converted,
and its imaginary part is disgregarded.

   Note: Int Intrinsic.

   The precise meaning of this intrinsic might change in a future
version of the GNU Fortran language, as more is learned about how it is
used.
