NAME

intro − introduction to Fortran library functions

DESCRIPTION

This section describes those functions that are in the Fortran run time library.  The functions listed here provide an interface from f77 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 f77(.).

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.out file. To include them, simply declare the following in any f77 module:
