Can a namelist read a variable array?

Does anyone know if a namelist can read a variable array?

I was wondering if the namelist can first read the array size then read the array values.

Thanks

You can have an array in a NAMELIST. However, all you can do is read in values (you can use subscripting in the array reference) - you can't change the array size. For example, you could have in the input:

A(3) = 4,5,6

where this would assign to elements 3:5 (you could also say A(3:5), but not, I think, in 6.1.)
