LONG(3F)                COMMAND REFERENCE                LONG(3F)



NAME
     long, short - integer object conversion

SYNOPSIS
     integer*4 function long (int2)
     integer*2 int2

     integer*2 function short (int4)
     integer*4 int4

DESCRIPTION
     The functions long and short provide conversion between
     short and long integer objects.  Long is useful when
     constants are used in calls to library routines and the code
     is to be compiled with -i2.  Short is useful in similar
     context when an otherwise long object must be passed as a
     short integer.
