You invoke an intrinsic by calling it explicitly from within a program, subprogram, or procedure. All system intrinsics are treated as external procedures by user programs and the intrinsics mechanism facilitates the declaration.

To call an intrinsic, you must know the following information:

  • The number of parameters and whether any are optional

  • The data type of each parameter and whether parameters are passed by value or reference

  • The calling sequence or order of the parameters

  • The functional return value, if applicable
