FFTW in Fortran result contains only zeros - fortran

Question

I have been trying to write a simple program to perform an fft on a 1D input array using fftw3. Here I am using a seismogram as an input. The output array is, however, coming out to contain only zeroes.
I know that the input is correct as I have tried doing the fft of the same input file in MATLAB as well, which gives correct results. There is no compilation error. I am using f95 to compile this, however, gfortran was also giving pretty much the same results. Here is the code that I wrote:-
program fft
use functions
implicit none
include 'fftw3.f90'
integer nl,row,col
double precision, allocatable :: data(:,:),time(:),amplitude(:)
double complex, allocatable :: out(:)
integer*8 plan
open(1,file='test-seismogram.xy')
nl=nlines(1,'test-seismogram.xy')
allocate(data(nl,2))
allocate(time(nl))
allocate(amplitude(nl))
allocate(out(nl/2+1))
do row = 1,nl
read(1,*,end=101) data(row,1),data(row,2)
amplitude(row)=data(row,2)
end do
101 close(1)
call dfftw_plan_dft_r2c_1d(plan,nl,amplitude,out,FFTW_R2HC,FFTW_PATIENT)
call dfftw_execute_dft_r2c(plan, amplitude, out)
call dfftw_destroy_plan(plan)
do row=1,(nl/2+1)
print *,out(row)
end do
deallocate(data)
deallocate(amplitude)
deallocate(time)
deallocate(out)
end program fft
The nlines() function is a function which is used to calculate the number of lines in a file, and it works correctly. It is defined in the module called functions.
This program pretty much tries to follow the example at http://www.fftw.org/fftw3_doc/Fortran-Examples.html
There might just be a very simple logical error that I am making, but I am seriously unable to figure out what is going wrong here. Any pointers would be very helpful.
This is pretty much how the whole output looks like:-

(0.0000000000000000,0.0000000000000000)
(0.0000000000000000,0.0000000000000000)
(0.0000000000000000,0.0000000000000000)
(0.0000000000000000,0.0000000000000000)
(0.0000000000000000,0.0000000000000000)

My doubt is directly regarding fftw, since there is a tag for fftw on SO, so I hope this question is not off topic

Answer 1

As explained in the comments first by #roygvib and #Ross, the plan subroutines overwrite the input arrays because they try the transform many times with different parameters. I will add some practical use considerations.
You claim you do care about performance. Then there are two possibilities:
You do the transform only once as you show in your code. Then there is no point to use FFTW_MEASURE. The planning subroutine is many times slower than actual plan execute subroutine. Use FFTW_ESTIMATE and it will be much faster.
FFTW_MEASURE tells FFTW to find an optimized plan by actually
computing several FFTs and measuring their execution time. Depending
on your machine, this can take some time (often a few seconds).
FFTW_MEASURE is the default planning option.
FFTW_ESTIMATE specifies that, instead of actual measurements of
different algorithms, a simple heuristic is used to pick a (probably
sub-optimal) plan quickly. With this flag, the input/output arrays are
not overwritten during planning.
http://www.fftw.org/fftw3_doc/Planner-Flags.html
You do the same transform many times for different data. Then you must do the planning only once before the first transform and than re-use the plan. Just make the plan first and only then you fill the array with the first input data. Making the plan before every transport would make the program extremely slow.
