Documentation error—I/O Formatting
Chapter 1 17
Documentation error—I/O Formatting
A documentation error was found on page 225 of the HP Fortran Programmer’s Reference
(part number B3908-90006). In Chapter 9 “I/O Formatting”, under the section “P (scale factor)
edit descriptor”, the paragraph immediately following the subsection “Output” title should
read:
“The scale factor effect on the EN, ES, F, and G (interpreted as F) edit descriptors is that the
externally-represented number equals the internally-represented number multiplied by
10**k.”
Subsequent paragraphs are correct as is.
