  13 .. function:: STORAGE_SIZE(A , KIND)
  14
  15   Returns the storage size of argument :samp:`{A}` in bits.
  16
  17   :param A:
  18     Shall be a scalar or array of any type.
  19
  20   :param KIND:
  21     (Optional) shall be a scalar integer constant expression.
  22
  23   Standard:
  24     Fortran 2008 and later
  25
  26   Class:
  27     Inquiry function
  28
  29   Syntax:
  30     .. code-block:: fortran
  31
  32       RESULT = STORAGE_SIZE(A [, KIND])
  33
  34   Return Value:
  35     The result is a scalar integer with the kind type parameter specified by KIND
  36     (or default integer type if KIND is missing). The result value is the size
  37     expressed in bits for an element of an array that has the dynamic type and type
  38     parameters of A.
