.help islrefit Aug85 "Gsurfit Package" .ih NAME islrefit -- refit surface grid line assuming old cols, w vector .ih SYNOPSIS include islrefit (sf, cols, lineno, z, w) .nf pointer sf # surface grid descriptor int cols[ARB] # columns to be fit, 1 <= cols[i] <= ncols int lineno # line number of surface grid line to be fit real z[ARB] # array of data values real w[ARB] # array of weights .fi .ih ARGUMENTS .ls sf Pointer to the surface grid descriptor structure. .le .ls cols The column numbers of the surface grid line to be added to the dataset. .le .ls lineno The number of the surface grid line to be added to the dataset. .le .ls z Array of data values. .le .ls w Array of weights. .le .ih DESCRIPTION In some applications the cols, and w values remain unchanged from fit to fit and only the z values vary. In this case it is redundant to reaccumulate the matrix and perform the Cholesky factorization for each succeeding surface grid line. ISLREFIT zeros and reaccumulates the vector on the right hand side of the matrix equation and performs the forward and back substitution phase to fit for a new coefficient vector. .ih NOTES It is the responsibility of the calling program to check for out of bounds column values and INDEF valued pixels. .ih SEE ALSO isinit, islfit, islaccum, islsolve, islzero, issolve, isfree .endhelp
