NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     SELECTED_INT_KIND - Returns an integer kind type parameter

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     SELECTED_INT_KIND ([R=]r)

IMPLEMENTATION    [Toc]    [Back]

     UNICOS, UNICOS/mk,	and IRIX systems

STANDARDS    [Toc]    [Back]

     Fortran 90

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The SELECTED_INT_KIND intrinsic function returns the kind type
     parameter of an integer data type that represents all integer values n
     with
	r	  r
     -10  < n <	10 .  It accepts the following argument:

     r	  Must be scalar and of	type integer

     SELECTED_INT_KIND is a transformational function.	The name of this
     intrinsic cannot be passed	as an argument.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

     This intrinsic function returns the integer kind type parameter
     corresponding to the decimal exponent range specified by its argument.
     The result	is a default integer scalar.  The result has a value equal
     to	the value of the kind type parameter of	an integer data	type that
     represents	all values in the range	of values
	r	  r
     -10  < n <	10 , or	if no such kind	type parameter exists, the result
     is	-1.  If	more than one kind type	parameter meets	the criteria, the
     value returned is the one with the	smallest decimal exponent range,
     unless there are several such values, in which case the smallest of
     these kind	values is returned.

EXAMPLES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The SELECTED_INT_KIND intrinsic function generates	the following
     results:

	  SELECTED_INT_KIND(4) = 2
	  SELECTED_INT_KIND(8) = 4
	  SELECTED_INT_KIND(13)	= 8
	  SELECTED_INT_KIND(18)	= 8
	  SELECTED_INT_KIND(19)	= -1

     page.
