Comments for F08/0109:

The example Q3 has a variable, C, of type LOCK_TYPE that is not a coarray. This violates C1302.   Answer A3 is wrong. 

For the same reason the example Q4 is defective and answer A4 is wrong.   

The example code in Q5 is also defective, although could be repaired by changing the declaration of X to 

       TYPE(LOCK_TYPE),SAVE :: X[*]

That seems to be sufficient to make answer A5 acceptable. 

As Van noted, in the edit for [127:8-9] C643 should be C642.



Cheers,
Bill
