Discussion of Sequence Association

When the shape of the dummy array argument and its associated actual array argument differ, the actual argument must not be an expression. There is no HPF mechanism for declaring that the value of an array-valued expression is sequential. In order to associate such an expression as an actual argument with a dummy argument of different rank, the actual argument must first be assigned to a named array variable that is forced to be sequential according to Definition 4 of Section 3.8.1.1.
