SHORT

Portability Function: Converts an INTEGER(4) argument to INTEGER(2) type.

Module

USE IFPORT

result = SHORT (int4)

int4

(Input) INTEGER(4). Value to be converted.

Results

The result type is INTEGER(2). The result is equal to the lower 16 bits of int4. If the int4 value is greater than 32,767, the converted INTEGER(2) value is not equal to the original.

Example

USE IFPORT INTEGER(4) this_one INTEGER(2) that_one READ(*,*) this_one THAT_ONE = SHORT(THIS_ONE) WRITE(*,10) THIS_ONE, THAT_ONE 10 FORMAT (X," Long integer: ", I16, " Short integer: ", I16) END
