Detailed Description

Generate and return the conversion of the input value to an output Fortran string, possibly with the requested format and sign symbol, if provided.

Returns

Parameters

[out]	str	: The output scalar of type `character` of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., SK, SKA, SKD , or SKU) containing the input value as a string with the specified format.
[out]	length	: The output scalar of type `integer` of default kind IK representing the length of the record written to the output string (i.e., `str(1:length)` is the record).
[in]	val	: The input scalar or `contiguous` array of rank 0, 1, or 2 of either type css_type (derived type container of scalar string of default kind SK) or type css_pdt (parameterized derived type container of scalar string of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., SK, SKA, SKD , or SKU)) or type `character` of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., SK, SKA, SKD , or SKU) or type `integer` of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., IK, IK8, IK16, IK32, or IK64) or type `logical` of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., LK) or type `complex` of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., CK, CK32, CK64, or CK128) or type `real` of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., RK, RK32, RK64, or RK128). containing the value to be converted to string.
[in]	format	: The input scalar of type `character` of default kind SK representing the Fortran IO format to be used when writing the value to the output allocatable character (optional, the default value depends on the type of the input `val`: If `val` is of type `complex` and the `sign` argument is missing, then `format = "(('(',g0,', ',g0,')',:,', '))"`. If `val` is of type `complex` and `sign = .true.`, then `format = "(('(',sp,g0,', ',g0,')',:,', '))"`. If `val` is of type `integer` or `real` and the `sign` argument is missing, then `format = "((g0,:,', '))"`. If `val` is of type `integer` or `real` and the `sign` argument is missing, then `format = "((sp,g0,:,', '))"`. If `val` is neither `integer` nor `real` nor `complex`, then `format = "(*(g0,:,','))"`. However, If `val` is of type `character`, then the blank characters are trimmed form the right side of each value. If `val` is of type `logical`, then the values `TRUE` and `FALSE` are output, corresponding to `.true.` and `.false.`. In all cases, the default separator is a comma followed by white space character `,`.)
[in]	signed	: The input scalar of type `logical` of default kind LK. If `.true.`, the output, if it is a number, will be signed (`+` or `-`). Otherwise, the output numbers will be unsigned. The value of `signed` is ignored if the optional input argument `format` is present. (optional, default = `.false.`)

Definition: pm_val2str.F90:58

Remarks: The procedures under discussion are pure.

Warning: The length of the input argument str must be large enough to contain the full input value.
This condition is verified only if the library is built with the preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.

Bug:: Status: Unresolved
Source: GNU Fortran Compiler gfortran version 10.3-11
Description: The GNU Fortran Compiler gfortran cannot handle IO of string arrays of zero-length of non-zero size in getStr() in assertion check blocks.
The issue happens to be with deferred-length strings character(:,SKG), allocatable :: Array(:).
The Intel Classic Fortran Compiler ifort can handle this properly.

Remedy (as of ParaMonte Library version 2.0.0): Avoid deferred-length strings where GNU Fortran Compiler gfortran cannot compile.

Todo:: Low Priority: This generic interface can be expanded to arrays of higher dimensions than two.

Todo:: Critical Priority: The default length of fields must be generically defined.
Currently, the maximum length of the fields is set to 127.
While this number is more than enough precisions of much higher orders available by compilers, it is bound to fail in the distant future.
Therefore, it must be generically set based on the precision of the fields.
