To: J3 Members J3/16-255 From: Van Snyder Subject: Discussion of dimensions in Subclause 5.4.6 References: 16-007r2 Date: 2016 September 28 1. Introduction --------------- The discussion of dimensions in 5.4.6 is wrong because it doesn't subtract codimension. Make 5.4.6, 5.4.7 and 5.4.8 subsidiary subclauses 5.4.6.1, 5.4.6.2 and 5.4.6.3 of a new subclause "5.4.6 Arrays and coarrays". 2. Edits -------- [45:7 5.4.6] Replace the subclause heading "Arrays" with "Arrays and coarrays". [48:7 5.4.6] Make subsidiary to 5.4.6 as 5.4.6.1. 48:7+ 5.4.6p1-] Insert a paragraph: "An array is a rectangular arrangement of scalar data objects." [45:8 5.4.6p1] Replace "an array ... and any" with "The number of dimensions of an array, plus the number of its codimensions if it is a coarray, shall not exceed fifteen. It may have any nonnegative". [45:9 5.4.6p1] Replace "elements" with "its elements on one image". Replace "the extents" with "its extents". [45:21 5.4.7] Make subsidiary to 5.4.6 as 5.4.6.2.
