How do I access last item in an array in Fortran?

Question

In Matlab, end index lets me access a last item.

> array = [1 2 3 4 5 6 7];
> array(end)
ans =  7

How do I do the same i

Answer 1

there is no such convenience notation, you need to do this

 array(size(array))

in older fortran versions you dont even have size() and need to track the dimension yourself

worth a note fortran arrays can be defined to have negative indices, so the end notation used in some other languages would be ambiguous

Answer 2

array ( ubound (array) )

size will only work if the array is 1-indexed.
