For example, all real and complex type declarations use the KIND specification; derived data types are used for storage flexibility and simplicity; array sections, automatic arrays, and allocatable arrays are fully utilized; interface blocks are used consistently; where appropriate, modules, rather than subroutine argument lists, are used for data association; low-level linear algebra is done with Fortran 90 syntax rather than with BLAS routines; internal subroutines are used extensively with most arguments available via host association.
