Perhaps, the OP should provide the description of ifort's option instead some vague reference. The top entry for googling "ifort -real_size 128" is https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-fortran-compiler-for-linux-and-mac-os-x/topic/515632 Steve Lionel's response contains "128-bit reals, with extended precision and range, have been supported by Intel Fortran since 2004, and DEC Fortran since 1980. The preferable way to use these is to declare variables as REAL(16) - use of flags to change default kinds is not recommended." I'm simply re-enforcing Steve Lionel's recommendation. If gfortran does not offer the an option to change the default kind, it is fairly difficult to use it. > > https://software.intel.com/en-us/node/691771 > This URL is not among the top 20 or so URLs returned by google.
