Document: CNVRT

Purpose: Describes the data conversion routines.

Category: SYSTEM

File: cnvrt.c

Author: K.G. Begeman

Description: The following routines for data conversion are available:
SUBROUTINE CNVRTC one byte character conversion
SUBROUTINE CNVRTH two byte integer conversion
SUBROUTINE CNVRTF four byte integer conversion
SUBROUTINE CNVRTE single precision f.p. conversion
SUBROUTINE CNVRTD double precision f.p. conversion
Each routine is described in more detail in the
accompanying document.
These routines convert foreign data to the format for
the current machine. The routines are setup so that
conversions of any type of foreign data from the same
foreign machine can be specified with the same foreign
type. Data from VMS machines are specified with
type = 1, data from ALLIANT, SUN, CONVEX (UNIX machines)
with type = 2, data from IBM machines with type = 3, data
from MSDOS PC's and DECstations with type 4 and data from
CONVEXs with type 5.

Warnings: Machine dependent! Currently implemented for VMS, SUN,
CONVEX, ALLIANT, HP 9000 and MSDOS PC's.
