   VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
   --------  ---  -------------------------------------------------
   rectan     I   Rectangular coordinates of a point.
   r          O   Distance of the point from Z axis.
   clon       O   Angle (radians) of the point from XZ plane
   z          O   Height of the point above XY plane.

Detailed_Input

   rectan      are the rectangular coordinates of the point of interest.

Detailed_Output

   r           is the distance of the point of interest from Z axis.

   clon        is the cylindrical angle (in radians) of the point of
               interest from XZ plane. The `clon' range is [0, 2pi].

   z           is the height of the point above XY plane.

Parameters

   None.

Exceptions

   Error free.

Files

   None.

Particulars

   This routine transforms the coordinates of a point from
   rectangular to cylindrical coordinates.

Examples

   The numerical results shown for these examples 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) Compute the cylindrical coordinates of the position of the Moon
      as seen from the Earth, and convert them to rectangular
      coordinates.

      Use the meta-kernel shown below to load the required SPICE
      kernels.

         File name: reccyl_ex1.tm

         This meta-kernel is intended to support operation of SPICE
         example programs. The kernels shown here should not be
         assumed to contain adequate or correct versions of data
         required by SPICE-based user applications.

         In order for an application to use this meta-kernel, the
         kernels referenced here must be present in the user's
         current working directory.

         The names and contents of the kernels referenced
         by this meta-kernel are as follows:

            File name                     Contents
