                 c_adjust, c, mesh
              or c_adjust, c, mesh, 1
              or c= c_adjust(c, mesh, how)

         adjust the cell number array C returned by track_reduce to
         allow for a different layout of cell arrays than the one assumed
         by the tracking routines.  Two HOW values are currently
         supported: 0 (or nil) if the cell arrays are the same shape as
         the nodal arrays, but the non-existent cell is at the end of
         each row rather than at the beginning.  And 1 if the cell arrays
         are smaller by one along each dimension than the nodal arrays.
         If you call c_adjust as a subroutine, the input C array
         is modified; if you call it as a function, the input C is
         unchanged and the new values returned.

cage3 |
                 cage3
              or cage3, onoff

         Toggle the cage display.  If ONOFF is non-nil and non-zero,
         turn on the cage.  If ONOFF is zero, turn off the cage.
         The cage draws a rectangular box "behind" the 3D object and
         attempts to put ticks and labels around the edge of the box.

call |
                 call, subroutine(arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5
                                  arg6, arg7, arg8);

         allows a SUBROUTINE to be called with a very long argument list
         as an alternative to:
              subroutine, arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5,
                arg6, arg7, arg8;
         Note that the statement
              subroutine(arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5,
                         arg6, arg7, arg8);
         will print the return value of subroutine, even if it is nil.
         If invoked as a function, call simply returns its argument.

catch |
                 catch(category)

         Catch errors of the specified category.  Category may be -1 to
         catch all errors, or a bitwise or of the following bits:
            0x01 math errors (SIGFPE, math library)
    	0x02 I/O errors
    	0x04 keyboard interrupts (e.g.- control C interrupt)
    	0x08 other compiled errors (YError)
    	0x10 interpreted errors (error)
         Use catch by placing it in a function before the section of code
         in which you are trying to catch errors.  When catch is called,
         it always returns 0, but it records the virtual machine program
         counter where it was called, and longjumps there if an error is
         detected.  The most recent matching call to catch will catch the
         error.  Returning from the function in which catch was called
         pops that call off the list of catches the interpreter checks.
         To use catch, place the call near the top of a function:
            if (catch(category)) {
    	  ......
    	}
            ......
         If an error with the specified category occurs in the "protected"
         code, the program jumps back to the point of the catch and acts
         as if the catch function had returned 1 (remember that when catch
         is actually called it always returns 0).
         In order to lessen the chances of infinite loops, the catch is
         popped off the active list if it is actually used, so that a
         second error will *not* be caught.  Often, this is only desirable
         for the error handling code itself -- if you want to re-execute
         the "protected" code, do this, and take care of the possibility
         of infinite loops in your interpreted code:
            while (catch(category)) {
    	  ......
    	}
            ......
         After an error has been caught, the associated error message
         (what would have been printed had it not been caught) is left
         in the variable catch_message.

cauer |
                 cauer(np, ripple, atten, w)

cd |
                 cd, directory_name

         change current working directory to DIRECTORY_NAME, returning
         the expanded path name (i.e.- with leading environment variables,
         ., .., or ~ replaced by the actual pathname).  If called as a
         function, returns nil to indicate failure, otherwise failure
         causes a Yorick error.

cheby1 |
                 cheby1(np, ripple, w)

cheby_deriv |
                 cheby_deriv(fit)

        returns Chebyshev fit to the derivative of the function of the
        input Chebyshev FIT.

SEE ALSO: | cheby_fit, cheby_integ
cheby_eval |
                 cheby_eval(fit, x)

        evaluates the Chebyshev fit (from cheby_fit) at points X.
        the return values have the same dimensions as X.

    interpreted function, defined at i/cheby.i   line 36
SEE ALSO: | cheby_fit
cheby_fit |
                 fit = cheby_fit(f, interval, n)
             or fit = cheby_fit(f, x, n)

        returns the Chebyshev fit (for use in cheby_eval) of degree N
        to the function F on the INTERVAL (a 2 element array [a,b]).
        In the second form, F and X are arrays; the function to be
        fit is the piecewise linear function of xp interp(f,x,xp), and
        the interval of the fit is [min(x),max(x)].

        The return value is the array [a,b, c0,c1,c2,...cN] where [a,b]
        is the interval over which the fit applies, and the ci are the
        Chebyshev coefficients.  It may be useful to use a relatively
        large value of N in the call to cheby_fit, then to truncate the
        resulting fit to fit(1:3+m) before calling cheby_eval.

cheby_integ |
                 cheby_integ(fit)
             or cheby_integ(fit, x0)

        returns Chebyshev fit to the integral of the function of the
        input Chebyshev FIT.  If X0 is given, the returned integral will
        be zero at X0 (which should be inside the fit interval fit(1:2)),
        otherwise the integral will be zero at x=fit(1).

    interpreted function, defined at i/pl3d.i   line 714
close |
                 close, f

         closes the I/O stream F (returned earlier by the open function).
         If F is a simple variable reference (as opposed to an expression),
         the close function will set F to nil.  If F is the only reference
         to the I/O stream, then "close, f" is equivalent to "f= []".
         Otherwise, "close, f" will close the file (so that subsequent
         I/O operations will fail) and print a warning message about the
         outstanding ("stale") references.

collect |
                 result= collect(f, name_string)

         scans through all records of the history file F accumulating the
         variable NAME_STRING into a single array with one additional
         index varying from 1 to the number of records.
         NAME_STRING can be either a simple variable name, or a name
         followed by up to four simple indices which are either nil, an
         integer, or an index range with constant limits.  (Note that
         0 or negative indices count from the end of a dimension.)
         Examples:
            collect(f, "xle")        -- collects the variable f.xle
    	collect(f, "tr(2,2:)")   -- collects f.tr(2,2:)
    	collect(f, "akap(2,-1:0,)") -- collects f.akap(2,-1:0,)
    	             (i.e.- akap in the last two values of its
    		            second index)

color_bar |
                 color_bar
              or color_bar, levs, colors

         Draw a color bar below the current coordinate system.  If LEVS is
         not specified uses plfc_levs (set by previous call to plfc).  If
         COLORS is specified, it should have one more value than LEVS,
         otherwise equally spaced colors are chosen, or plfc_colors if
         plfc_levs was used.  With the vert=1 keyword the color bar appears
         to the left of the current coordinate system (vert=0 is default).
         By default, color_bar will attempt to label some of the color
         interfaces.  With the labs= keyword, you can force the labelling
         algorithm as follows: labs=0 supresses all labels, labs=n forces
         a label at every nth interface, labs=[i,n] forces a label at every
         nth interface starting from interface i (0<=i<=numberof(LEVS)).
         You can use the adjust= keyword to move the bar closer to (adjust<0)
         or further from (adjust>0) the viewport, and the height= keyword to
         set the height of any labels (default 14 points).

conj |
                 conj(z)

         returns the complex conjugate of its argument.

    builtin function, documented at i0/std.i   line 646
contour |
                 nc= contour(yc,xc, level, z, y,x)
              or nc= contour(yc,xc, level, z, y,x,ireg)

         returns the points on the contour curve that would have been
         plotted by plc.  Z, Y, X, and IREG are as for plc, and the
         triangle= and region= keywords are accepted and have the same
         meaning as for plc.  Unlike plc, the triangle array is an output
         as well as an input to contour; if supplied it may be modified
         to reflect any triangulations which were performed by contour.
         LEVEL is a scalar z value to return the points at that contour
         level.  All such points lie on edges of the mesh.  If a contour
         curve closes, the final point is the same as the initial point
         (i.e.- that point is included twice in the returned list).
         LEVEL is a pair of z values [z0,z1] to return the points of
         a set of polygons which outline the regions between the two
         contour levels.  These will include points on the mesh boundary
         which lie between the levels, in addition to the edge points
         for both levels.  The polygons are closed, simply connected,
         and will not contain more than about 4000 points (larger polygons
         are split into pieces with a few points repeated where the pieces
         join).
         YC and XC are the output points on the curve(s), or nil if there
         are no points.  On input, they must be simple variable references,
         not expressions.  The return value NC is a list of the lengths of
         the polygons/polylines returned in (XC,YC), or nil if there are
         none.  numberof(XC)==numberof(YC)==sum(NC).  For the level pair
         case, YC, XC, and NC are ready to be used as inputs to plfp.

conv3_rays |

         convert [p,q] representation to or from best_rays representation.
         If the first dimension of RAYS is 3, returns 5-by-raydims array
         of best_rays; if first dimension of RAYS is 5, returns 3-by-raydims-
         by-2 [p,q] for use with hex5_track.

convol |
                 convol(a,b)

         returns convolution of vector a with vector b, a vector
         of length na+nb-1 where na=numberof(a), nb=numberof(b).
         In detail, for i=[1 to na+nb-1]
           result(i) = sum j=[max(1,1+i-nb) to min(na,i)] (a(j)*b(1+i-j))

         Check for "obsolete/" subdirectory of Yorick home directory for
         extensions of the openb function to old file formats.
         Use the size= keyword to specify a non-default (4 Mbyte) size for
