Last time I dealt with PASCAL it declared the variables in I believe in
reverse order from simple to complex. Depending upon compiler options I also
believe that it would group variables for a tighter fit. And of course
arrays were last. I know that you asked about FORTRAN77 but I think it and
PASCAL are similar in design.
