Intel® Fortran Compiler 16.0 User and Reference Guide
Intel® Fortran expects numeric data to be in native little endian order, in which the least-significant, right-most zero bit (bit 0) or byte has a lower address than the most-significant, left-most bit (or byte). For information on using nonnative big endian and VAX* floating-point formats, see Supported Native and Nonnative Numeric Formats.
The symbol :A in any figure specifies the address of the byte containing bit 0, which is the starting address of the represented data element.
The following table lists the intrinsic data types used by Intel® Fortran, the storage required, and valid ranges. For information on declaring Fortran intrinsic data types, see Type Declarations. For example, the declaration INTEGER(4) is the same as INTEGER(KIND=4) and INTEGER*4.

Description |
|---|---|---|

BYTE INTEGER(1) |
1 byte (8 bits) |
A BYTE declaration is a signed integer data type equivalent to INTEGER(1). |
|
INTEGER |
See INTEGER(2), INTEGER(4), and INTEGER(8) |
Signed integer, either INTEGER(2), INTEGER(4), or INTEGER(8). The size is controlled by the integer-size compiler option. |
|

|
INTEGER(8) |
8 bytes (64 bits) |

|
REAL |
See REAL(4), REAL(8), and REAL(16) |
Real floating-point values, either REAL(4), REAL(8), or REAL(16). The size is controlled by the real-size compiler option. |
|

|
COMPLEX |
See COMPLEX(4), COMPLEX(8), and COMPLEX(16) |
Complex floating-point values in a pair of real and imaginary parts that are either REAL(4), REAL(8), or REAL(16). The size is controlled by the real-size compiler option. |
|
DOUBLE COMPLEX |
See COMPLEX(8) and COMPLEX(16) |
Double complex floating-point values in a pair of real and imaginary parts that are either REAL(8) or REAL(16). The size is controlled by the double-size compiler option. |
|
COMPLEX(4) |
8 bytes (64 bits) |
Single-precision complex floating-point values in a pair of IEEE S_floating format parts: real and imaginary. The real and imaginary parts each range from 1.17549435E-38 to 3.40282347E38. Values between 1.17549429E-38 and 1.40129846E-45 are denormalized (subnormal). |
|
COMPLEX(8) |
16 bytes (128 bits) |
