Elemental statement provides a simple and generic interface for a procedure regarding its rank -dimensions-. Due to Fortran strong typing programming style, It was a bit challenging to provide generic functions. It required to implement all possible forms (type and rank-dimensions-). Elemental focus in the rank issue with a simple interface. Note an elemental procedure…

read moreFypp preprocessor generates Fortran code based on Python language. However, in some cases it is not straightforward. Read below to discover how to create higher level functions. Let’s say our program requires to allocate an array for N supported ranks. dim is an array with the size of each rank. To make it possible We…

Overall it adapts the class new characteristics to already wide-spread Fortran functionalities (==, =, + ,-, …). Specifically, this post only focus on assignment (=). In the following example, Mynumber is generic class to hold any type of real number. For that…
