GNU Fortran accepts real literal constants with an exponent-letter
of ‘Q’, for example, 1.23Q45
. The constant is interpreted
as a REAL(16)
entity on targets that support this type. If
the target does not support REAL(16)
but has a REAL(10)
type, then the real-literal-constant is interpreted as a
REAL(10)
entity. In the absence of REAL(16)
and
REAL(10)
, an error occurs.
