     Action
 
     Terminates execution of the main program, or returns control from a
     subprogram.
 
     Syntax
 
     END
 
     Remarks
 
     The END statement marks the end of the program unit in which it
     appears. It must be the last statement in every program unit.
 
     An END statement must appear by itself on an unlabeled initial
     line (not a continuation line). No FORTRAN statement may have an
     initial line that appears to be an END statement (such as
     splitting an END IF statement over two lines).
 
     In a subprogram, the END statement has the same effect as a RETURN
     statement.
 
     Example
 
     C     An END statement must be the last statement in a program
     C     unit:
           PROGRAM MyProg
           WRITE (*, '("Hello, world!")')
           END
