ABORT(3F)               COMMAND REFERENCE               ABORT(3F)



NAME
     abort - terminate abruptly with core image

SYNOPSIS
     subroutine abort (string)
     character*(*) string

DESCRIPTION
     Abort cleans up the I/O buffers and then aborts producing a
     core file in the current directory.  If string is given, it
     is written to logical unit 0 preceded by abort:.

EXAMPLES
     The following section of FORTRAN code calls the abort
     routine in cases where the value of i is out of range.  The
     code could be used for debugging a FORTRAN program where i
     should never be out of the range from 1 to 3.

                    .
                    .

                  GOTO (10,20,30) i
                  CALL abort ("Computed GOTO out of range 1-3")

                   statement label]
                    .
                    .

                   statement label]
                    .
                    .

                   statement label]
                    .
                    .
