A Fortran line is divided into fields for the required information. Each column represents a single character.COLUMN FIELD ------ ----- 1 Indicator: Comment(C,c,*,!,blank) or Debug(D,d) 1-5 Label (any decimal integer except zero) 6 Indicator: Continuation of statement (any character except zero or space) 7-72 Statement Field (up to column 72) 73-80 Sequence Number (optionally to column 132 -- ignored)
A Fortran line is divided into fields for the required information. Each column represents a single character. You cannot specify a sequence number field using this method of coding.COLUMN FIELD ------ ----- (before tab) 1 Indicator: Comment(C,c,*,!,blank) or Debug(D,d) 1-5 Label (any decimal integer except zero) (after first tab) 6 Indicator: Continuation of statement (any digit 1-9) (after second tab) Statement Field (up to column 72)
Tabs are treated as single characters.
