The PORT mathematical subroutine library, developed at Bell Laboratories, is described. Library subprograms are written in a mechanically verifiable subset (PFORT) of ANS Fortran. Adaptation to a particular computer/compiler environment is achieved by calls to Fortran function subprograms defining environment-dependent quantities. Scratch storage in PORT is provided by a dynamic storage allocation scheme implemented as a package of simple portable Fortran subprograms. PORT is installed and in use on a wide variety of computers.
