Routine Name Shorthand
For shorthand, names that contain a question mark "?" represent groups of routines with similar functionality. Each group typically consists of routines used with four basic data types: single-precision real, double-precision real, single-precision complex, and double-precision complex. The question mark is used to indicate any or all possible varieties of a function; for example:
