Box 808 (L-316) C Livermore, CA 94550 C FTS 532-4275, (510) 422-4275 C***DESCRIPTION C C DPCHFE: Piecewise Cubic Hermite Function Evaluator C C Evaluates the cubic Hermite function defined by N, X, F, D at C the points XE(J), J=1(1)NE. C C To provide compatibility with DPCHIM and DPCHIC, includes an C increment between successive values of the F- and D-arrays. C C ---------------------------------------------------------------------- C C Calling sequence: C C PARAMETER (INCFD = ...) C INTEGER N, NE, IERR C DOUBLE PRECISION X(N), F(INCFD,N), D(INCFD,N), XE(NE), FE(NE) C LOGICAL SKIP C C CALL DPCHFE (N, X, F, D, INCFD, SKIP, NE, XE, FE, IERR) C C Parameters: C C N -- (input) number of data points. (Error return if N.LT.2 .) C C X -- (input) real*8 array of independent variable values. The C elements of X must be strictly increasing: C X(I-1) .LT. X(I), I = 2(1)N. C (Error return if not.) C C F -- (input) real*8 array of function values. F(1+(I-1)*INCFD) is C the value corresponding to X(I). C C D -- (input) real*8 array of derivative values. D(1+(I-1)*INCFD) C is the value corresponding to X(I). C C INCFD -- (input) increment between successive values in F and D. C (Error return if INCFD.LT.1 .) C C SKIP -- (input/output) logical variable which should be set to C .TRUE. if the user wishes to skip checks for validity of C preceding parameters, or to .FALSE. otherwise. C This will save time in case these checks have already C been performed (say, in DPCHIM or DPCHIC). C SKIP will be set to .TRUE. on normal return. C C NE -- (input) number of evaluation points. (Error return if C NE.LT.1 .) C C XE -- (input) real*8 array of points at which the function is to C be evaluated. C C NOTES: C 1. The evaluation will be most efficient if the elements C of XE are increasing relative to X; C that is, XE(J) .GE. X(I) C implies XE(K) .GE. X(I), all K.GE.J . C 2. If any of the XE are outside the interval [X(1),X(N)], C values are extrapolated from the nearest extreme cubic, C and a warning error is returned. C C FE -- (output) real*8 array of values of the cubic Hermite C function defined by N, X, F, D at the points XE. C C IERR -- (output) error flag. C Normal return: C IERR = 0 (no errors). C Warning error: C IERR.GT.0 means that extrapolation was performed at C IERR points. C "Recoverable" errors: C IERR = -1 if N.LT.2 . C IERR = -2 if INCFD.LT.1 . C IERR = -3 if the X-array is not strictly increasing. C IERR = -4 if NE.LT.1 . C (The FE-array has not been changed in any of these cases.) C NOTE: The above errors are checked in the order listed, C and following arguments have **NOT** been validated.
