Chapter 12 649
FALLOC Allocates array space in memory.
SUBROUTINE FALLOC ( nelem , elsize , clean , basevec , addr , offset )
INTEGER :: nelem , elsize , clean , addr , offset
basevec must be declared as an array whose elements are elsize bytes in
size. FALLOC allocates space for basevec to contain nelem elements.
FDATE Returns the date and time as an ASCII string; available as a subroutine:
SUBROUTINE FDATE ( string )
CHARACTER(LEN=*) :: string
And as a function:
CHARACTER(LEN=*) :: FUNCTION FDATE()
FGETC Retrieves a character from a file specified by an HP Fortran logical unit.
INTEGER FUNCTION FGETC ( lunit , char )
INTEGER :: lunit
CHARACTER char
FLUSH Flushes file for specified unit number.
SUBROUTINE FLUSH ( unit )
INTEGER :: unit
FORK Creates a copy of the calling process.
INTEGER FUNCTION FORK()
FPUTC Writes a character to the file specified by an HP Fortran logical unit,
bypassing normal HP Fortran I/O.
INTEGER FUNCTION FPUTC ( lunit , char )
INTEGER :: lunit
CHARACTER :: char
FREE Releases memory previously allocated with MALLOC or FALLOC.
SUBROUTINE FREE ( addr )
INTEGER :: addr
