C The purpose of this program is to illustrate the

C declaration, assignment, concatenation and printing of

C CHARACTER variables (i.e. strings).




C There is no input to this program




C The output of this program is the contents of the two

C originalvariables on the same line separated by a single space

C and the variable constructed from their concatenation




 
C Language information

C strings are stored in variables typed as CHARACTER

C the length of the string is specified using * and an integer

C the concatenation operator is double slashes

C the format descriptor for a string variable is A

C the format descriptor for a string literal is H




 CHARACTER * 3 ANIMAL

 CHARACTER STRING*13

 CHARACTER L9*2

 ANIMAL = 'DOG'

 L9 = 'GY'

 STRING = ANIMAL // L9

 WRITE (6,10) ANIMAL, L9, STRING

 10 FORMAT(1X, A3, 1X, A2, 1X, A10)

 WRITE (6, 12)

 12 FORMAT (1X, 3Hdog,1X, 2Hgy,1X, 5Hdoggy)

 STOP
