@node Introduction
@section Introduction to intrinsic procedures
-GNU Fortran provides a rich set of intrinsic procedures that includes all
-the intrinsic procedures required by the Fortran 95 standard, a set of
-intrinsic procedures for backwards compatibility with Gnu Fortran 77
-(i.e., @command{g77}), and a small selection of intrinsic procedures
-from the Fortran 2003 standard. Any description here, which conflicts with a
-description in either the Fortran 95 standard or the Fortran 2003 standard,
-is unintentional and the standard(s) should be considered authoritative.

The enumeration of the @code{KIND} type parameter is processor defined in
the Fortran 95 standard. GNU Fortran defines the default integer type and
