generate a sequence array in fortran

Question

Is there an intrinsic in Fortran that generates an array containing a sequence of numbers from a to b, similar to python's range()

>>> range(1,5)
[1, 2, 3, 4]
>>> range(6,10)
[6, 7, 8, 9]

?

Answer 1

No, there isn't.

You can, however, initialize an array with a constructor that does the same thing,

program arraycons
  implicit none
  integer :: i
  real :: a(10) = (/(i, i=2,20, 2)/)
  print *, a
end program arraycons
