073. Use parameters to dimension fixed-size arrays to make a code easier to change#

topic: Arrays

Note

This tip is a draft1.

Use parameters to dimension fixed-size arrays to make a code easier to change, for example

integer, parameter :: n1=3,n2=5 real :: x(n1,n2),y(n1,n2),z(n1,n2)

or

real, dimension(n1,n2) :: x,y,z

Numbers other than 0 or 1 should not appear repeatedly and should be parameters.
