UBOUND (array [,dim] [,kind]) Class: Inquiry function - Generic Returns the upper bounds for all dimensions of an array, or the upper bound for a specified dimension. The "array" cannot be an allocatable array that is not allocated, or a disassociated pointer. The "dim" is a scalar integer with a value in the range 1 to n, where "n" is the rank of "array". 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 "dim" is present, the result is a scalar. Otherwise, the result is a rank-one array with one element for each dimension of "array". Each element in the result corresponds to a dimension of "array". If "array" is an array section or an array expression that is not a whole array or array structure component, UBOUND (array,dim) has a value equal to the number of elements in the given dimension. The setting of compiler options that specify integer size can affect the result of this function. Examples: Consider the following: REAL ARRAY_A (1:3, 5:8) REAL ARRAY_B (2:8, -3:20) UBOUND (ARRAY_A) is (3, 8). UBOUND (ARRAY_A, DIM=2) is 8. UBOUND (ARRAY_B) is (8, 20). UBOUND (ARRAY_B (5:8, :)) is (4,24) because the number of elements is significant for array section arguments.
