• Real

'Real' is the only elementary numeric type that is floating-point type and is equivalent to a 'double' type in C. Note that one can use integer constants but they are treated as a subclass of the same floating-point type; there is no explicit Boolean type but in the relational operators the floating-point value '0.' is treated as 'false', and other values are treated as 'true'.

Examples:

No declarations for floating-point variables are needed.

• Array.

'array' <arrayName> '['<size>']' ';'

where 'size' is a constant representing a number of elements of the array. The array's elements are indexed from 1 to size. So one can access the i-th element as

<arrayName>[i]

Examples of declarations of arrays with names 'xx' and 'pz':

array xx[3], pz[8];

The first element of 'xx' will be xx[1], and the forth element of 'pz' will be pz[4].

There are two special arrays with reserved names:

- 'x' ? represents an array of coordinate variables for any given point of modeling space;

- 'a' ? represents an array of 'external' numerical parameters;

So, expressions inside a program can contain the elements of these arrays (for example: x[2], a[1]). It is supposed that the actual values for both arrays' elements are given from outside the program. The declarations for these arrays must be given in the head of a program (see below).

• String

This type has a limited usage only as a constant being substituted instead of a corresponding function's argument. A string is represented as a sequence of characters surrounded by double quotation marks. The most typical usage of this type is to reference to a file name.
Example:

"teapot.dat"
