fitgrid_params(3NCARG)

πŸ’– fitgrid_params πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to fitgrid_params(3NCARG) β€” part of the NCAR GRAPHICS manual set, and literally your cheat sheet to every internal knob, dial and secret setting inside Fitgrid. no cap, this is the whole list. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

fitgrid_params β€” this doc gives you the quick lowdown on all the internal parameters of Fitgrid. every single one. we're not skipping anybody. 🫢


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

each entry below is serving you: the parameter name, its Fortran type (if you're a C girlie, just use the obvious equivalents, iykyk), its default value, and a lil description of what it does. πŸ’…

  • SIG β€” Real β€” default 1. this is the value of the tension factor. tension. it's giving taut. ✨
  • SL1 β€” Real β€” default 0. the slope of the curve at the first point (peep parameter SF1 for the receipts).
  • SLN β€” Real β€” default 0. the slope of the curve at the final point (again, see parameter SF1).
  • SF1 β€” Integer β€” default 3 this one controls how SL1 and SL2 get used: 0=use both; 1=use SL1 only; 2=use SL2 only; 3=use neither. choose your fighter. ⭐
  • SF2 β€” Integer β€” default 3 controls how SMT and EPS get used: 0=use neither; 1=use both; 2=use SMT only; 3=use EPS only.
  • SMT β€” Real β€” default none smoothing parameter for ftcurvs, ftcurvps, c_ftcurvs, and c_ftcurvps. silky. 🧚
  • EPS β€” Real β€” default none smoothing parameter for ftcurvs, ftcurvps, c_ftcurvs, and c_ftcurvps. (yes, twin, same list. the family is tight like that. πŸ’œ)
  • ZX1 β€” Real array β€” default none X partials at left for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • ZXM β€” Real array β€” default none X partials at right for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • ZY1 β€” Real array β€” default none Y partials at bottom for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • ZYN β€” Real array β€” default none Y partials at top for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • Z11 β€” Real β€” default none X-Y partial at lower left for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • ZM1 β€” Real β€” default none X-Y partial at lower right for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • Z1N β€” Real β€” default none X-Y partial at upper left for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • ZMN β€” Real β€” default none X-Y partial at upper right for ftsurf and c_ftsurf.
  • DF1 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if ZX1 is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
  • DF2 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if ZXM is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
  • DF3 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if ZY1 is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
  • DF4 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if ZYN is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
  • DF5 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if Z11 is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
  • DF6 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if ZM1 is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
  • DF7 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if Z1M is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
  • DF8 β€” Integer β€” default 1 flag indicating if ZMN is user supplied: 0=yes; 1=no.
bestie reminder: type them exactly as written. Z1N up top, Z1M down in DF7 β€” that's what the page says, so that's what we ship. no edits, no guessing, periodt. πŸ’…
