Elemental Intrinsic Function (Generic): Converts an integer to double-precision real type.
Syntax
result = DFLOAT (a)
a
(Input) Must be of type integer.
Results
The result type is double-precision real (REAL(8) or REAL*8). Functions that cause conversion of one data type to another type have the same effect as the implied conversion in assignment statements.
