| 0 | byte (character) | CHARACTER*n |
| 1 | twos complement (integer): | |
| | 2-byte (short integer) | INTEGER*2 |
| | 4-byte (integer) | INTEGER*4 |
| 2 | HP 3000 floating point: | |
| | 4-byte (real) | REAL*4 |
| | 8-byte (double precision) | REAL*8 |
| 3 | IEEE Standard floating point: | |
| | 4-byte (real) | REAL*4 |

NOTE The variable n refers to an integer number.
Floating point data may be stored in HP 3000 or IEEE Standard format:
* IEEE Standard floating point data is the default MPE XL NM (Native
Mode) floating point format.
* HP 3000 floating point data may also be created by explicit
specification in NM. HP 3000 floating point data is the default in
MPE XL CM (Compatibility Mode) or on an MPE V-based system.
