VERIFY (string, set [,back] [,kind]) Class: Elemental function - Generic Verifies that a set of characters contains all the characters in a string by identifying the first character in the string that is not in the set. The "set" must be of type character with the same kind type parameter as "string". The "back" must be of type logical. The "kind" must be a scalar integer initialization expression. The result is of type integer. If "kind" is present, the kind parameter of the result is that specified by "kind"; otherwise, the kind parameter of the result is that of default integer. If the processor cannot represent the result value in the kind of the result, the result is undefined. If "back" is absent (or is present with the value false) and "string" has at least one character that is not in "set", the value of the result is the position of the leftmost character of "string" that is not in "set". If "back" is present with the value true and "string" has at least one character that is not in "set", the value of the result is the position of the rightmost character of "string" that is not in "set". If each character of "string" is in "set" or the length of "string" is zero, the value of the result is zero. Examples: VERIFY ('CDDDC', 'C') has the value 2. VERIFY ('CDDDC', 'C', BACK=.TRUE.) has the value 4. VERIFY ('CDDDC', 'CD') has the value zero.
