Bug in 4.2BSD f77 (with Seeley bug fixes):
This seems like a bug in f77 to me. I don't have access to the
standard so am not certain. If you enter a single integer in response
to the first prompt the j has value zero. If you do so in response to
the second prompt you get a core dump. It seems that the 3x makes the
read run past the end of record and it doesn't like that.
98 write (6,99)
99 format("Format i3,i3 Enter a single integer")
read (5,100) i,j
100 format(i3,i3)
write (6,101) i,j
101 format(2i10)
write (6,97)
97 format("Format i3,3x,i3 Enter a single integer")
read (5,102) i,j
102 format(i3,3x,i3)
write (6,101) i,j
goto 98
stop
end
