8.255 SIZE — Determine the size of an array ¶
Synopsis:
RESULT = SIZE(ARRAY[, DIM [, KIND]])
Description:
Determine the extent of ARRAY along a specified dimension DIM, or the total number of elements in ARRAY if DIM is absent.
Class:
Inquiry function
Arguments:
| ARRAY | Shall be an array of any type. If ARRAY is a pointer it must be associated and allocatable arrays must be allocated. |
|---|---|
| DIM | (Optional) shall be a scalar of type INTEGERand its value shall be in the range from 1 to n, where n equals the rank of ARRAY. |
| KIND | (Optional) A scalar INTEGER constant expression indicating the kind parameter of the result. |
Return value:
The return value is of type INTEGER and of kind KIND. IfKIND is absent, the return value is of default integer kind.
