ncl_c_dsgrid3s: primary single precision C entry for 3D gridding

NAME

c_dsgrid3s - primary single precision C entry for 3D gridding

FUNCTION PROTOTYPE

float  *c_dsgrid3s(int, float [], float [], float [], float [],


          int, int, int, float [], float [], float [], int *);

SYNOPSIS

float  *c_dsgrid3s(int n, float x[], float y[], float z[], 


          float u[], int nx, int ny, int nz, float xo[], 


          float yo[], float zo[], int *ier);

DESCRIPTION

n

The number of input data points.

x

An array containing the X coordinates of the input data points.

y

An array containing the Y coordinates of the input data points.

z

An array containing the Z coordinates of the input data points.

u

An array of size n containing the functional values of the input data points. That is, z[m] is the value of the input function at coordinate (x[m],y[m],z[m]), for 0 <= m < n.

nx

The number of X values in the output grid.

ny

The number of Y values in the output grid.

nz

The number of Z values in the output grid.

xo

An array of size nx containing the X coordinates of the output data grid. The values in xo must be increasing, but need not be equally spaced.

yo

An array of size ny containing the Y coordinates of the output data grid. The values in yo must be increasing, but need not be equally spaced.

zo

An array of size nz containing the Z coordinates of the output data grid. The values in zo must be increasing, but need not be equally spaced.

ier

An error return value. If *ier is returned as 0, then no errors were detected. If *ier is non-zero, then refer to the man page for dsgrid_errors.

USAGE

c_dsgrid3s returns a pointer to a linear array of data that is the interpolated grid stored in row-major order. That is, if out is declared as

float *out;

and we set:

  out = *c_dsgrid3s(n, x, y, z, u, nx, ny, nz, 


            xo, yo, zo, ier);

then out[nz*ny*i + nz*j + k] is the interpolated function value at coordinate point (xo[i],yo[j],zo[k]) for 0 <= i < nx, 0 <= j < ny, and 0 <= k < nz. The space for out is allocated internal to c_dsgrid3s and is nx*ny*nz floats in size.

ACCESS

To use c_dsgrid3s, load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath.
