PRINT

• A variable. An array is treated as if all of its elements were specified in the order they are arranged in storage.

  A pointer must be associated with a target, and an allocatable object must be allocated. A derived-type object cannot have any ultimate component that is inaccessible to this statement. The evaluation of output_item cannot result in a derived-type object that contains a pointer. The structure components of a structure in a formatted statement are treated as if they appear in the order of the derived-type definition; in an unformatted statement, the structure components are treated as a single value in their internal representation (including padding).

• An expression.
• An implied-DO list, as described under Implied-DO List.

An expression that is an output_item cannot have a value that is a procedure pointer.

• The statement label of a FORMAT statement. The FORMAT statement must be in the same scoping unit.
• The name of a scalar INTEGER(4) or INTEGER(8) variable that was assigned the statement label of a FORMAT statement. The FORMAT statement must be in the same scoping unit.

  Fortran 95 does not permit assigning of a statement label.

• A character constant. It cannot be a Hollerith constant. It must begin with a left parenthesis and end with a right parenthesis. Only the format codes described in the FORMAT statement can be used between the parentheses. Blank characters can precede the left parenthesis, or follow the right parenthesis.
• A character variable that contains character data whose leftmost character positions constitute a valid format. A valid format begins with a left parenthesis and ends with a right parenthesis. Only the format codes listed under FORMAT can be used between the parentheses. Blank characters can precede the left parenthesis, or follow the right parenthesis.
• An array of noncharacter intrinsic type.
• Any character expression, except one involving concatenation of an operand that specifies inherited length, unless the operand is the name of a constant.
• An asterisk, specifying list-directed formatting.
• A namelist specifier that specifies a previously defined namelist.
