Complex(Real, Imag)
Complex: COMPLEX function, the exact type being the result of cross-promoting the
types of all the arguments.
Real: INTEGER or REAL; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Imag: INTEGER or REAL; scalar; INTENT(IN).
Intrinsic groups: gnu.
Description:
Returns a COMPLEX value that has `Real' and `Imag' as its
real and imaginary parts, respectively.
If Real and Imag are the same type, and that type is not
INTEGER, no data conversion is performed, and the type of
the resulting value has the same kind value as the types
of Real and Imag.
If Real and Imag are not the same type, the usual type-promotion
rules are applied to both, converting either or both to the
appropriate REAL type.
The type of the resulting value has the same kind value as the
type to which both Real and Imag were converted, in this case.
If Real and Imag are both INTEGER, they are both converted
to REAL(KIND=1), and the result of the COMPLEX()
invocation is type COMPLEX(KIND=1).
Note: The way to do this in standard Fortran 90
is too hairy to describe here, but it is important to
note that `CMPLX(D1,D2)' returns a COMPLEX(KIND=1)
result even if `D1' and `D2' are type REAL(KIND=2).
Hence the availability of COMPLEX() in GNU Fortran.
