If both w and m are zero, and the value of the
internal datum is zero, the output field consists of only one blank
character.
Forms:
The A edit descriptor directs the editing of character values. It can correspond to an input/output list item of type character or any other type. The kind type parameter of all characters transferred and converted is implied by the corresponding list item.
On input, if w is greater than or equal to the length (call it len) of the input list item, the rightmost len characters are taken from the input field. If the specified field width is less than len, the w characters are left-justified, with ( len - w ) trailing blanks added.
On output, if w is greater than len, the output field consists of ( w - len ) blanks followed by the len characters from the internal representation. If w is less than or equal to len, the output field consists of the leftmost w characters from the internal representation.
If w is not specified, the width of the character field is the length of the corresponding input/output list item.
Forms:
The B edit descriptor directs editing between values of any type in internal form and their binary representation. (A binary digit is either 0 or 1.)
On input, w binary digits are edited and form the internal representation for the value of the input list item. The binary digits in the input field correspond to the rightmost binary digits of the internal representation of the value assigned to the input list item. m has no effect on input.
On input, w must be greater than zero.
+---------------------------------Fortran 95---------------------------------+
On output, w can be zero. If w is zero, the output field consists of the least number of characters required to represent the output value.
+-----------------------------End of Fortran 95------------------------------+
The output field for Bw consists of zero or more leading blanks followed by the internal value in a form identical to the binary digits without leading zeros. Note that a binary constant always consists of at least one digit.
The output field for Bw.m is the same as for Bw, except that the digit string consists of at least m digits. If necessary, the digit string is padded with leading zeros. The value of m must not exceed the value of w unless w is zero. If m is zero and the value of the internal data is zero, the output field consists of only blank characters, regardless of the sign control in effect.
If m is zero, w is positive and the value of the
internal datum is zero, the output field consists of w blank
characters.
If both w and m are zero, and the value of the
internal datum is zero, the output field consists of only one blank
character.
If the nooldboz suboption of the -qxlf77 compiler option is specified (the default), asterisks are printed when the output field width is not sufficient to contain the entire output. On input, the BN and BZ edit descriptors affect the B edit descriptor.
+-------------------------------IBM Extension--------------------------------+
If the oldboz suboption of the -qxlf77 compiler option is specified, the following occurs on output:
If w is zero, the oldboz suboption will be ignored.
With the oldboz suboption, the BN and BZ edit descriptors do not affect the B edit descriptor.

an input/output list item of type complex,
or to any other type in XL Fortran, as long as the length is at

The scale factor k (see P (Scale Factor) Editing) controls decimal normalization. If -d<k<=0, the output field contains |k| leading zeros and d - |k| significant digits after the decimal point. If 0<k<d+2, the output field contains k significant digits to the left of the decimal point and d-k+1 significant digits to the right of the decimal point. You cannot use other values of k.

The G edit descriptor can correspond to an input/output list item of any type. Editing of integer data follows the rules of the I edit descriptor; editing of real and complex data follows the rules of the E or F edit descriptors (depending on the magnitude of the value); editing of logical data follows the rules of the L edit descriptor; and editing of character data follows the rules of the A edit descriptor.
If the nogedit77 suboption (the default) of the -qxlf77
option is specified, the method of representation in the output field depends
on the magnitude of the datum being edited. Let N be the magnitude of
the internal datum. If
0 < N < 0.1-0.5×10
-d-1 or N >= 10
d-0.5 or N is 0 and d is 0,
Gw.d output editing is the same as
kPE w.d output editing and
Gw.dEe output editing is the same
as kPEw.dEe output
editing, where kP refers to the scale factor ( P (Scale Factor) Editing) currently in effect. If
0.1-0.5×10-d-1 <=
N < 10d-0.5 or N is
identically 0 and d is not zero, the scale factor has no effect, and the value
of N determines the editing as follows:
|
Magnitude of Datum |
Equivalent Conversion |
|---|---|
|
N = 0 |
F(w-n).(d-1),n('b') (d must not be 0) |

0.1-0.5×10-d-1 <= N < 1-0.5×10-d |

F(w-n).0,n('b') |
where b is a blank. n is 4 for Gw.d and e+2 for Gw.dEe. The value of w-n must also be positive.
Note that the scale factor has no effect unless the magnitude of the datum to be edited is outside the range that permits effective use of F editing.
+-------------------------------IBM Extension--------------------------------+
If 0 < N < 0.1-0.5×10-d-1, N >= 10d-0.5, or N is 0 and d is 0, Gw.dDe output editing is the same as kPEw.dDe output editing and Gw.dQe output editing is the same as kPEw.dQe output editing.

On output, if the gedit77 suboption of the -qxlf77 compiler option is specified, the number is converted using either E or F editing, depending on the number. The field is padded with blanks on the right as necessary. Letting N be the magnitude of the number, editing is as follows:

Form:
The character count Q edit descriptor returns the number of characters remaining in an input record. The result can be used to control the rest of the input.
There also exists the extended precision Q edit descriptor. By default, XL Fortran only recognizes the extended precision Q edit descriptor described earlier. See E, D, and Q (Extended Precision) Editing for more information. To enable both Q edit descriptors, you must specify the -qqcount compiler option. See "-qqcount Option" in the User's Guide for more information.
When you specify the -qqcount compiler option, the compiler will distinguish between the two Q edit descriptors by the way the Q edit descriptor is used. If only a solitary Q is found, the compiler will interpret it as the character count Q edit descriptor. If Qw. or Qw.d is encountered, XL Fortran will interpret it as the extended precision Q edit descriptor. You should use correct format specifications with the proper separators to ensure that XL Fortran correctly interprets which Q edit descriptor you specified.
The value returned as a result of the character count Q edit descriptor depends on the length of the input record and on the current character position in that record. The value is returned into a scalar integer variable on the READ statement whose position corresponds to the position of the character count Q edit descriptor in the FORMAT statement.
The character count Q edit descriptor can read records of the following file types and access modes:
In an output operation, the character count Q edit descriptor is ignored. The corresponding output item is skipped.
