9.141 IBITS — Bit extraction ¶

Description:

IBITS extracts a field of length LEN from I, starting from bit position POS and extending left for LEN bits. The result is right-justified and the remaining bits are zeroed. The value of POS+LEN must be less than or equal to the value BIT_SIZE(I).

Standard:

Fortran 90 and later, has overloads that are GNU extensions

Class:

Elemental function

Syntax:

RESULT = IBITS(I, POS, LEN)

Arguments:

I	The type shall be INTEGER.
POS	The type shall be INTEGER.
LEN	The type shall be INTEGER.

Return value:

The return value is of type INTEGER and of the same kind as I.

Specific names:

Name	Argument	Return type	Standard
IBITS(A)	INTEGER A	INTEGER	Fortran 90 and later
BBITS(A)	INTEGER(1) A	INTEGER(1)	GNU extension
IIBITS(A)	INTEGER(2) A	INTEGER(2)	GNU extension
JIBITS(A)	INTEGER(4) A	INTEGER(4)	GNU extension
KIBITS(A)	INTEGER(8) A	INTEGER(8)	GNU extension
