#### 7.1.1 Intrinsic Types

In order to ensure that exactly the same variable type and kind is used in C and Fortran, the named constants shall be used which are defined in the `ISO_C_BINDING` intrinsic module. That module contains named constants for kind parameters and character named constants for the escape sequences in C. For a list of the constants, see ISO_C_BINDING.
