The Fortran standard states that when you have list directed input, and a
forward slash (/) appears at the end of a line of input, that any variables in
the read statement that have not been initialized should simply be skipped over
(ignored).
When gfortran encounters a slash at the beginning of a line, it does not
exhibit the correct behavior. For example, this data:
6.34 1.34 4345.34534
/
with this read statement
read(50, *)r1,r2,r3,r4
should set r1 to 6.34, r2 to 1.34, r3 to 4345.34534, and leave r4 unchanged.
But gfortran code issues the following run time error:
Fortran runtime error: Bad real number in item 4 of list input
All other fortran compilers that I use (xlf, ifort, etc) handle this case
correctly.
