RESULT = BTEST(I, POS)

Arguments:

I	The type shall be INTEGER.

The return value is of type LOGICAL

Example:

          program test_btest
              integer :: i = 32768 + 1024 + 64
              integer :: pos
              logical :: bool
              do pos=0,16
                  bool = btest(i, pos)
                  print *, pos, bool
              end do
          end program test_btest
