NAME

6       long, short - integer object conversion
7

SYNOPSIS

9       integer*4 function long (int2)
10       integer*2 int2
11
12       integer*2 function short (int4)
13       integer*4 int4
14

DESCRIPTION

16       These  functions  provide  conversion  between  short  and long integer
17       objects.  Long is useful when constants are used in  calls  to  library
18       routines  and the code is to be compiled with ``-i2''.  Short is useful
19       in similar context when an otherwise long object must be  passed  as  a
20       short integer.
