NAME
CPPKCL - Picks a set of contour levels.
SYNOPSIS
CALL CPPKCL (ZDAT, RWRK, IWRK)
C-BINDING SYNOPSIS
#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>
void c_cppkcl (float *zdat, float *rwrk, int *iwrk)
DESCRIPTION
All three arguments are arrays used in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1, or CPSPS2, the contents of which
must not have been changed since that call.
ZDAT (REAL array, dimensioned as specified in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1, or CPSPS2, input)
is the data array.
RWRK (REAL array, dimensioned as specified in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1, or CPSPS2,
input/output) is the real workspace array.
IWRK (INTEGER array, dimensioned as specified in the last call to CPRECT, CPSPS1, or CPSPS2,
input/output) is the integer workspace array.
C-BINDING DESCRIPTION
The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions.
USAGE
Normally, CPPKCL is called by CONPACK when the contour levels are needed; it may be called directly by
the user when it is desired to modify the resulting parameter arrays specifying contour levels and
associated quantities in some way. CPPKCL must be called after initialization has been done (by a call
to one of the initialization routines CPRECT, CPSPS1, or CPSPS2); this is because CPPKCL depends on
values set during initialization.
If the contour-level-selection parameter 'CLS' is zero (indicating that the user intends to pick contour
levels), or if the constant-field-flag 'CFF' is non-zero (indicating that, during initialization, the
data were found to be essentially constant), CPPKCL does nothing. Otherwise, CPPKCL picks a set of
contour levels. The way in which it picks these levels is determined by the value of the internal
parameter 'CLS'; see the description of this parameter in the conpack_params man page.
When CPPKCL picks contour levels, it sets the value of the internal parameter 'NCL' equal to the number
of contour levels picked. It then sets the values of elements 1 through 'NCL' of the parameter array
'CLV' (contour level values) to the levels chosen. The Ith elements of the associated parameter arrays
are set as follows:
CLU = 1 or 3 Contour level use flag
AIA = I+1 Area identifier above the level
AIB = I Area identifier below the level
LLT = ' ' (single blank) Contour line label text
CLD = '$$$$$$$$$$$$$' Contour line dash pattern
CLC = -1 Contour line color
LLC = -1 Contour line label color
CLL = 0. Contour line line width
Thus, after CPPKCL is called, the situation for each contour level is as follows:
• Contour lines at the level are to be drawn by calls to CPCLDM or CPCLDR.
• The lines will be labeled if 'CLU'=3, but not if 'CLU'=1.
• If CPCLAM is called, lines at the level will be added to the area map; the area identifiers for
areas "above" the level and for areas "below" the level are as specified by 'AIA' and 'AIB'.
• The dash pattern for the level is solid, and neither the color of the line, the color of the
labels on it, nor its width are to be set.
• The text of the label associated with the level is, as yet, unspecified.
By resetting elements in these parameter arrays, the user can change the situation in various ways.

that order.
