NAME
     DPROD, QPROD - Computes double-precision or quad-precision product of
     two real numbers

SYNOPSIS
     DPROD ([X=]x,[Y=]y)
     QPROD ([X=]x,[Y=]y)

STANDARDS
     Fortran

     Fortran extension:  QPROD

DESCRIPTION
     DPROD returns the double-precision real product of its two real
     arguments.  QPROD returns the quad-precision real product of its two
     real arguments.  These are elemental functions.  They accept the
     following arguments:

     x         Must be of type single-precision real or double-precision
               real.  See the RETURN VALUES section for information on
               input data types and return values.

               The terms single precision, double precision, and quad
               precision differ depending on your platform.  For
               platform-specific information, see the TERMINOLOGY section
               of the INTRO_INTRIN(3I) man page.

     y         Must be of the same type and kind type as x.

     These functions evaluate y = x * y.

RETURN VALUES
     DPROD returns the double-precision real product of two real arguments.

     QPROD returns the quad-precision real product of two real arguments.

NOTES
     The name of this intrinsic can be passed as an argument.

EXAMPLES
     The following program calls DPROD to compute the double-precision
     product of the two real numbers 5.0 and 6.0:

          PROGRAM DOUBT
          REAL X,Y
          DOUBLE PRECISION Z
          X=5.0
          Y=6.0
          Z=DPROD(X,Y)
          PRINT *, Z
          STOP
          END

     The preceding program gives Z to be the double-precision number 30.0
     (or in Fortran, 30.D0).
