Constants of a selected kind are denoted by appending underscore followed
by the kind number or an integer constant name (better):
100_2, 1238_4, 54321_long

underscore `_'!
-
There are other pitfalls too, the constant
1000_short
may not be valid as KIND = short may not be able to represent numbers
greater than 100. Be very careful.
