------- Additional Comments From ebertakis at gmail dot com 2005-03-20 19:22 ------- (In reply to comment #4) This case is slightly different. The compiler just warns you that you are using variable x before its value have been defined. Many programmers (that have bad programming habits :-) probably that includes myself!) take for granted that variables have an initial value equal to 0 once their memory space is reserved upon definition as e.g. real. That is not always true and is heavily dependant on the compiler that is used. Many compilers fill the variables with garbage when they are first declared. See also the Fortran FAQ (paragraph 3.2.3): http://www.faqs.org/faqs/fortran-faq/ That is why you got that warning. I believe it is not related to the array usage.
