Intel® Fortran Compiler 16.0 User and Reference Guide
For numeric assignment statements, the variable and expression must be numeric type.
The expression must yield a value that conforms to the range requirements of the variable. For example, a real expression that produces a value greater than 32767 is invalid if the entity on the left of the equal sign is an INTEGER(2) variable.
Significance can be lost if an INTEGER(4) value, which can exactly represent values of approximately the range -2*10**9 to +2*10**9, is converted to REAL(4) (including the real part of a complex constant), which is accurate to only about seven digits.
If the variable has the same data type as that of the expression on the right, the statement assigns the value directly. If the data types are different, the value of the expression is converted to the data type of the variable before it is assigned.
The following table summarizes the data conversion rules for numeric assignment statements.
