Abstract

The aims of this chapter are:

  • to introduce the last predefined numeric data type in Fortran;

  • to illustrate with examples how to use this type.

Make it as simple as possible, but no simpler.

Albert Einstein

‘Can you do addition?’ the White Queen asked. ‘What’s one and one and one and one and one and one and one and one and one and one?’ ‘I don’t know’ said Alice. ‘I lost count.’ ‘She can’t do addition,’ the Red Queen interrupted.
