Convert integers to strings to create output filenames at run time

by

you can write to a unit, but you can also write to a string

program foo
    character(len=1024) :: filename

    write (filename, "(A5,I2)") "hello", 10

    print *, trim(filename)
end program

Please note (this is the second trick I was talking about) that you can also build a format string programmatically.

program foo

    character(len=1024) :: filename
    character(len=1024) :: format_string
    integer :: i

    do i=1, 10
        if (i < 10) then
            format_string = "(A5,I1)"
        else
            format_string = "(A5,I2)"
        endif

        write (filename,format_string) "hello", i
        print *, trim(filename)
    enddo

end program
