[ncl-talk] problem with output ascii

[Dennis Shea]

x = (/ (/    .9,    1.0,    -.8,     .6/) \
     , (/-999.9, -999.9, -999.9, -999.9/) \
     , (/   .7 ,     .8,   -.7 ,     .6/) \
     , (/  1.4 ,   1.4 ,   -1.4,   .5 /) \
     , (/2.3  ,  2.3  ,  -2.3 ,  .5 /) \
     , (/-999.9, -999.9, -999.9, -999.9/) /)

printVarSummary(x)

write_matrix (x, "4f7.1", False)

============



Variable: x
Type: float
Total Size: 96 bytes
            24 values
Number of Dimensions: 2
Dimensions and sizes:    [6] x [4]
Coordinates:

    0.9    1.0   -0.8    0.6
 -999.9 -999.9 -999.9 -999.9
    0.7    0.8   -0.7    0.6
    1.4    1.4   -1.4    0.5
    2.3    2.3   -2.3    0.5
 -999.9 -999.9 -999.9 -999.9

====
(The above output is lined up perfectly on my screen.)

write_matrix, for historical reasons, is a fortran subroutine. Hence the

*fmtf - *Format to be used, specified via Fortran style.

===
My guess is that it is dependent of the fortran compiler used for you
version of NCL.

You mention AIX ...

Maybe others can help.
