Hi there,
We're using 64-bit ifort on linux and its version is 11.1 056.
I have to assign the value of a real*8 variable var_r8 to another real*4 variable var_r4.
If var_r8 is checked to be within upper/lower bounds of real*4, is it save to use
var_r4 = var_r8
In case var_r8 exceeds the smallest number which can be handled by real*4, var_r4 can be set as 0.0.
Your opinion is very much appreciated.
