DF.INOUT combines into a single memory quarter subroutines to input and output signed decimal numbers of any magnitude, offering great savings of core storage from IFORL8 and OFORL8. It transforms between FORTRAN F-Format and DBLFLT format. Input accuracy is limited only by the DBLFLT format; output is correct to six significant digits plus any additional integer or fractional zeros necessary to correctly place the decimal point. Calls to the routine are comparable to those to DBLFLT.

Other Programs Needed: DBLFLT (DEC-L8-SFAA-D)

Source Language: LAP6

Storage Requirement: 400 octal locations

Restrictions: Special call for numbers in DBLFLT Accumulator (FAC)
