Parameter transfer call-by-reference, identification with keyword VAR
PROC PROGRAM_NAME(VAR VARIABLE_TYPE1 VARIABLE1,VAR VARIABLE_TYPE2
...,)
Example:
PROC CONTOUR(VAR REAL LENGTH, VAR REAL WIDTH)

PROC PROGRAM_NAME(VAR VARIABLE_TYPE1 ARRAY_NAME1[array size],
VAR VARIABLE_TYPE2 ARRAY_NAME2[array size],
VAR VARIABLE_TYPE3 ARRAY_NAME3[array size1, array size2],
VAR VARIABLE_TYPE4 ARRAY_NAME4[ ],
VAR VARIABLE_TYPE5 ARRAY_NAME5 [,array size])
