FORTRAN, Data, Array Name Reference

 *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

  An array name reference resolves itself to the name of an array
  with no subscripts after the array name.  For example:

  Data Declarations:

     INTEGER INT, INTARY (10)
       . . .
     STRUCTURE /STRA/
         INTEGER  INTFLD, INTFLDARY (10)
     END STRUCTURE
       . . .
     STRUCTURE /STRB/
         CHARACTER*20  CHARFLD
         INTEGER  INTFLD, INTFLDARY (10)
         STRUCTURE STRUCFLD
             COMPLEX  CPXFLD, CPXFLDARY (10)
         END STRUCTURE
         RECORD  /STRA/  RECFLD, RECFLDARY (10)
     END STRUCTURE
       . . .
     RECORD  /STRB/  REC, RECARY (10)

  Reference Examples:

     INTARY --- Is a numeric or character array.

     RECARY --- Is an array of records.

     REC.INTFLDARY --- Is a numeric or character array field of
                       a record.

     REC.RECFLDARY --- Is an array of substructures within a record.

     RECARY(1).INTFLDARY --- Is a numeric or character array field of
                             a record array element.

     RECARY(1).RECFLDARY --- Is an array of substructures within a
                             record array element.
