I am using gfortran compiler. Also tell me if gfortran uses something other than the Fortran standard while performing automatic typecasting (type conversion).
How does automatic typecasting (type conversion) work in Fortran?

Assignment is defined by Fortran 2008 Section 7.2. Of note is Cl. 7.2.1.3 paragraph 8:
This means that any expression (
expr
) will be implicitly converted to the type and kind of the variable it is being assigned to. For character types, derived types and anything else, please see the standard.Also note that Fortran only performs conversions like this during assignment and initialization but not contexts like procedure calls. For example, consider this procedure:
This procedure has a dummy argument of type integer. You cannot, for example, do this:
because this results in a mismatch of type between the actual and dummy arguments.
You can, however, do this:
because the implicit conversion is defined for the assignment.
The only documented extension to the standard for implicit type conversion in gfortran (5.1.0) is between logical and integer types during assignment.
See: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-5.1.0/gfortran/Implicitly-convert-LOGICAL-and-INTEGER-values.html#Implicitly-convert-LOGICAL-and-INTEGER-values
.true.
is converted to integer1
.false.
is converted to integer0
0
is converted to.false.
.true.
Do note that if you can do without legacy extensions then don't use them. Using them means your program is not standard Fortran and thus any compiler is free to reject it for being incorrect. This extensions is meant to allow legacy code to compile with modern compilers and not for use in new code.
