Variable types

The Fluent udf guide uses the data type "real" (real sum_diss=0;).
this does not appear to be proper C syntax.
Does the Fluent compiler recognize it as a C type (instead of float, double, int, etc.)?

Hi,

The datatype "real" is interpreted as a "float" when using the single precision solver and "double" when using the double precision solver.

Cheers!
