Folks,
Oh, oh. Now in addition to forgetting people's names
(even those I have known for years), I am forgetting
the names of IDL routines. :-(
There is a routine (I've seen it discussed here, in
fact, I swore I would write an article about it so I
could find it on my web page) that works like this.
Given an array of values, and a target value, it tells
you which index in the array (gosh, I even wrote a program
using this, but which one!!!) contains a value closest to
the target value.
I know I could probably write the damn code in five
minutes, but this is really ANNOYING me.
Anyone younger have a clue as to what this routine was
called? You will be forever in my debt. :-)
Cheers,
David
