intro - introduction to FORTRAN library functions
DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
This section describes those functions that are in the
Fortran run time library. The functions listed here pro-
vide an interface from _f_7_7 programs to the system in the
same manner as the C library does for C programs. They
are automatically loaded as needed by the Fortran compiler
_f_7_7(1), except for the graphics interface routines. Those
must be explicitly requested, see _p_l_o_t(3f).
The math intrinsics required by the 1977 Fortran standard
are available, although not described here. In addition,
the _a_b_s, _s_q_r_t, _e_x_p, _l_o_g, _s_i_n, and _c_o_s intrinsics have been
extended for double complex values. They may be refer-
enced using the generic names listed above, or they may be
referenced using their specific names that consist of the
generic names preceded by either _c_d or _z. For example, if
_z_z is double complex, then _s_q_r_t_(_z_z_), _z_s_q_r_t_(_z_z_), or
_c_d_s_q_r_t_(_z_z_) compute the square root of _z_z. The _d_c_m_p_l_x
intrinsic forms a double complex value from two double
precision variables or expressions, and the name of the
specific function for the conjugate of a double complex
value is _d_c_o_n_j_g.
Most of these functions are in libU77.a. Some are in
libF77.a or libI77.a. A few intrinsic functions are
described for the sake of completeness.
For efficiency, the SCCS ID strings are not normally
included in the _a_._o_u_t file. To include them, simply
declare
external f77lid
in any _f_7_7 module.
