primary single precision C entry for 2D gridding

Function Prototype

float *c_dsgrid2s(int, float [], float [], float [],
                  int, int, float [], float [], int *);

Synopsis

float *c_dsgrid2s(int n, float x[], float y[], float z[], 
                  int nx, int ny, float xo[], float yo[], 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 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]), for 0 <= m < n.

nx

The number of X values in the output grid.

ny

The number of Y 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.

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_dsgrid2s 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_dsgrid2s(n, x, y, z, nx, ny, xo, yo, ier);

then out[i*ny+j] is the interpolated function value at coordinate point (xo[i],yo[j]) for 0 <= i < nx and 0 <= j < ny. The space for out is allocated internal to c_dsgrid2s and is nx*ny floats in size.

Access

To use c_dsgrid2s, load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath.
