Abstract

The two statements EQUIVALENCE and COMMON are often considered to be relatively advanced facilities of FORTRAN. Certainly, to use them without encountering problems, you need to know rather more about the particular computer you are using. However, the two statements are covered briefly here in this last chapter, but it should be considered only as an introduction to these facilities.
