Description: | Produces a higher precision product. This is a specific function that has no generic name associated with it. It must not be passed as an actual argument. | ||
Class: | Elemental function; Specific | ||
Arguments: | X | Must be of type REAL(4) or REAL(8). | |
Y | Must be the same type and kind parameter as X. | ||
Results: | If X and Y are of type REAL(4), the result type is double precision real. If X and Y are of type REAL(8), the result is of type real(16). The result value is equal to X*Y. |
Examples
DPROD (2.0, -4.0) has the value -8.00D0.
DPROD (5.0D0, 3.0D0) has the value 15.00Q0.
The following shows another example:
REAL(4) e
REAL(8) d
e = 123456.7
d = 123456.7D0
! DPROD (e,e) returns 15241557546.4944
! DPROD (d,d) returns 15241556774.8899992813874268904328
