Whole Arrays

A whole array is a named array; it is either a named constant or a variable. It is referenced by using the array name (without any subscripts).

If a whole array appears in a nonexecutable statement, the statement applies to the entire array. For example:

  INTEGER, DIMENSION(2:11,3) :: L   ! Specifies the type and
                                    !    dimensions of array L

If a whole array appears in an executable statement, the statement applies to all of the elements in the array. For example:

  L = 10             ! The value 10 is assigned to all the
                     !   elements in array L
  WRITE *, L         ! Prints all the elements in array L
