contiguous.10.2
- To keep the definition of `simple' simple, we have chosen to
require all but one of the section subscripts to be without bounds. A
colon without bounds makes it obvious both to the compiler and to the
reader that the whole of the dimension is selected. It would have been
possible to allow cases where the whole dimension is selected with one
or two bounds, but this means for the reader that the array declaration
or most recent allocation has to be consulted and for the compiler that
a run-time check may be required.
