[comp.lang.fortran] variable arrays

jbuck@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu (John F. Buck) (11/30/90)

It has been a long time since the question has come up in one of my classes
about being able to have arrays of varying size.

I seem to remember, and the texts I have examined, seem to show that it is
possible to dimention an array in a subroutine with variables as the size
factors.  This does not, however, yield a usable form on our compilers.

Organic speaks of large dummy arrays in the main program and passing
variable dimentions to the subroutines.  

I guess what I need is information on dynamic sizing or arrays either in
the main program (which I do not think is possible) or in subroutines
(which, for some reason I think I have done.)

Help anyone?
