Good we have the debugger, otherwise the code without /debug just simply crash.
How to treat such presents from the hell? I do not know how it even appeared because i pre-screen every number before saving it on the subject of being denormal and out of scale.
What facilities for dealing with such numbers exist in Fortran and FTN95? Can I for example somehow filter them out before this assignment? |

The source of error was found. Yes, data was loaded from file and there was an error during read.
The question remains though: do Fortran/FTN have the ability to isolate such bad numbers ? |

The short answer is no. It's down to the programmer to allocate memory and say what data is stored.
You could write test code that accessed every floating point array element then the program will fault when reading an invalid value from memory.
