------------------------------------------------------------------------
A brief synopsis of the problem:
"print" in fortran on RT dose not work right for complex numbers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please describe the problem in detail (mention any necessary files or
commands that may be involved, on which machine the bug happened, and what
the program did that was wrong):
for a complex number z = x+i y
print*, z
gives: (x,x) instead of (x,y)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repeat by (please enter a set of commands which will allow us to
repeat the bug):
You must have a program test.f as follows:
complex z
read*, z
c you inout a complex such as (1,2)
print*, z
print*, abs(z)
c This calculates the absolute value
end
then complie it: f77 test.f (on RT)
then: a.out
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fix (if you know what it is):
