C***DESCRIPTION
C
C   I1MACH can be used to obtain machine-dependent parameters for the
C   local machine environment.  It is a function subprogram with one
C   (input) argument and can be referenced as follows:
C
C        K = I1MACH(I)
C
C   where I=1,...,16.  The (output) value of K above is determined by
C   the (input) value of I.  The results for various values of I are
C   discussed below.
C
C   I/O unit numbers:
C     I1MACH( 1) = the standard input unit.
C     I1MACH( 2) = the standard output unit.
C     I1MACH( 3) = the standard punch unit.
C     I1MACH( 4) = the standard error message unit.
C
C   Words:
C     I1MACH( 5) = the number of bits per integer storage unit.
C     I1MACH( 6) = the number of characters per integer storage unit.
C
C   Integers:
C     assume integers are represented in the S-digit, base-A form
C
C                sign ( X(S-1)*A**(S-1) + ... + X(1)*A + X(0) )
C
C                where 0 .LE. X(I) .LT. A for I=0,...,S-1.
C     I1MACH( 7) = A, the base.
C     I1MACH( 8) = S, the number of base-A digits.
C     I1MACH( 9) = A**S - 1, the largest magnitude.
C
C   Floating-Point Numbers:
C     Assume floating-point numbers are represented in the T-digit,
C     base-B form
C                sign (B**E)*( (X(1)/B) + ... + (X(T)/B**T) )
C
C                where 0 .LE. X(I) .LT. B for I=1,...,T,
C                0 .LT. X(1), and EMIN .LE. E .LE. EMAX.
C     I1MACH(10) = B, the base.
C
C   Single-Precision:
C     I1MACH(11) = T, the number of base-B digits.
C     I1MACH(12) = EMIN, the smallest exponent E.
C     I1MACH(13) = EMAX, the largest exponent E.
C
C   Double-Precision:
C     I1MACH(14) = T, the number of base-B digits.
C     I1MACH(15) = EMIN, the smallest exponent E.
C     I1MACH(16) = EMAX, the largest exponent E.
C
C   To alter this function for a particular environment, the desired
C   set of DATA statements should be activated by removing the C from
C   column 1.  Also, the values of I1MACH(1) - I1MACH(4) should be
C   checked for consistency with the local operating system.
