Procedure

   cknr03_c ( C-kernel, number of records, type 03 ) 

   void cknr03_c ( SpiceInt            handle,
                   ConstSpiceDouble    descr  [],
                   SpiceInt          * nrec      )

Abstract

   Return the number of pointing instances in a CK type 03 segment.
   The segment is identified by a CK file handle and segment
   descriptor.

Required_Reading

   CK
   DAF

Keywords

   POINTING


Brief_I/O

   VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
   --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
   handle     I   The handle of the CK file containing the segment.
   descr      I   The descriptor of the type 3 segment.
   nrec       O   The number of pointing instances in the segment.

Detailed_Input

   handle      is the handle of the binary CK file containing the
               segment. The file should have been opened for read
               or write access, by cklpf_c, dafopr_c or dafopw_c.

   descr       is the packed descriptor of a data type 3 CK segment.

Detailed_Output

   nrec        is the number of pointing instances in the type 3
               segment.

Parameters

   None.

Exceptions

   1)  If the segment indicated by `descr' is not a type 3 segment, the
       error SPICE(CKWRONGDATATYPE) is signaled by a routine in the call
       tree of this routine.

   2)  If the specified handle does not belong to any DAF file that
       is currently known to be open, an error is signaled by a
       routine in the call tree of this routine.

   3)  If `descr' is not a valid descriptor of a segment in the CK
       file specified by `handle', the results of this routine are
       unpredictable.

Files

   The CK file specified by `handle' should be open for read or
   write access.

Particulars

   For a complete description of the internal structure of a type 3
   segment, see the CK required reading.

   This routine returns the number of discrete pointing instances
   contained in the specified segment. It is normally used in
   conjunction with ckgr03_c which returns the Ith pointing instance
   in the segment.

Examples

   The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
   platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
   input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
   specific arithmetic implementation.

   1) The following code example extracts the SCLK time, boresight
      vector, and angular velocity vector for each pointing instance
      in the first segment in a CK file that contains segments of
      data type 3.

      Use the CK kernel below, available in the Venus Express PDS
      archives, as input for the code example.
