[comp.lang.fortran] alias and noalias

mrt7455@evtprp0b (Michael R Tucker) (12/13/90)

I have been following most of the thread about C versus FORTRAN and
there is something I don't understand.  I have no idea what people 
mean when they talk of 'alias' and 'noalias'.  I don't have any idea 
of the merits of either.  Could someone explain to me what alias mean, 
good and bad points, et. al.

Thank you in advance
