Data Type

Character string

Default Value

(E12.4)

Description

This parameter controls the format used to print real data. You may change it to any valid FORTRAN format descriptor used to print real data. For example, if you are printing matrix data and want to find out if the terms are zero or not, you might change it to (E9.1). On the other hand if you are printing data and are concerned about the least significant digits, you might select (E23.15). Naturally the more information you print out about each term, the more space (screen or paper) is used.

NOTE: Be sure and include the parenthesis and character string quotations in the format descriptor when calling subroutine FMSCST. When setting RFMAT in the license file or with FMSSET, the string quotations are not required.

EXAMPLES:

To change RFMAT with a subroutine call, 
       CALL FMSCST ('RFMAT','(E9.1)')
To change RFMAT using FMSSET, 
FMSSET>RFMAT=(E9.1)
