An ALLOCATE shape must not be given for a scalar object

This error message is related to Fortran programming language and it occurs when you try to allocate memory for a scalar object. In Fortran, scalar objects are variables that hold a single value, such as integers, real numbers, or characters. The ALLOCATE statement is used to allocate memory dynamically for arrays or other data structures, but it cannot be used for scalar objects.

To fix this error, you need to remove the ALLOCATE statement for scalar objects and declare them as regular variables instead. If you need to allocate memory for arrays or other data structures, you can use the ALLOCATE statement as usual.

Here's an example of how to declare a scalar variable in Fortran:

INTEGER :: num
REAL :: x
CHARACTER(LEN=10) :: name

In this example, `num` is an integer scalar variable, `x` is a real scalar variable, and `name` is a character scalar variable with a length of 10 characters.
