Initialization and Specification Expressions

A constant expression contains intrinsic operations and parts that are all constants. An initialization expression is a constant expression that is evaluated when a program is compiled. A specification expression is a scalar, integer expression that is restricted to declarations of array bounds and character lengths.

Initialization and specification expressions can appear in specification statements, with some restrictions.
