Rules for code translation

  When translating symbolic expressions, certain functions should be restricted according to the type of their arguments (integer, real, double, complex etc.). For example, all the arguments of the FORTRAN function max must be of the same type. To ensure ease of use and improved efficiency, the issue of data typing of function arguments has not been addressed. The tools provided are assumed to have been used appropriately.
