Procedure

     ORDD ( The ordinal position of an element in a set )

     INTEGER FUNCTION ORDD ( ITEM, SET )

Abstract

     Return the ordinal position of a given item in a set. If the
     item does not appear in the set, return zero.

Required_Reading

     None.

Keywords

     SEARCH
     SETS

Declarations

     IMPLICIT NONE

     INTEGER               LBCELL
     PARAMETER           ( LBCELL = - 5 )

     DOUBLE PRECISION      ITEM
     DOUBLE PRECISION      SET ( LBCELL:* )

Brief_I/O

     VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
     --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
     ITEM       I   An item to locate within a set.
     SET        I   A set to search for a given item.

     The function returns the ordinal position of ITEM within the SET.

Detailed_Input

     ITEM     is a double precision value to be located within a set.

     SET      is a properly validated SPICE set that is to be
              searched for the occurrence of ITEM.

Detailed_Output

     The function returns the ordinal position of ITEM within SET.
     Ordinal positions range from 1 to N, where N is the cardinality of
     the set.

     If ITEM is not an element of SET, the function returns 0.

Parameters

     None.

Exceptions

     1)  If the input set has invalid cardinality, an error is signaled
         by a routine in the call tree of this routine. ORDD returns an
         unspecified value in this case.

     2)  If the input set has invalid size, an error is signaled by a
         routine in the call tree of this routine. ORDD returns an
         unspecified value in this case.

Files

     None.

Particulars

     A natural ordering can be imposed upon the elements of any
     SPICE set, be it INTEGER, CHARACTER or DOUBLE PRECISION. For
     character strings the ASCII collating sequence serves as the
     ordering relation, for DOUBLE PRECISION and INTEGER variables
     the arithmetic ordering is used.

     Given any element of a set, its location within this ordered
     sequence of elements is called its ordinal position within
     the set.

     For illustrative purposes suppose that SET represents the set

              { 8, 1, 2, 9, 7, 4, 10 }

     The ordinal position of:     8 is 5
                                  1 is 1
                                  2 is 2
                                  9 is 6
                                  7 is 4
                                  4 is 3
                                 10 is 7

     Given an item of the SET, this routine returns its ordinal
     position. If the item is not in the set, this function returns
     a value of 0.

Examples

     Suppose that you wished to find the relative position of a value
     in a large list of values stored within an array. Say we want
     to know the relative position of item I of ARRAY withing the
     set of values represented in ARRAY.

     The following sequence of subroutine calls would allow you
     determine the relative position of the value ARRAY(I).

        INTEGER               N
        PARAMETER           ( N = something useful )

        DOUBLE PRECISION      ARRAY (         N )
        DOUBLE PRECISION      SET   ( LBCELL: N )
        INTEGER               I

        INTEGER               NVALID
        INTEGER               POSITION

     set the value of NVALID to be the number of valid elements in the
     array ARRAY

        CALL MOVED  ( ARRAY, N,      SET(1) )
        CALL VALIDD ( N,     NVALID, SET    )

        POSITION = ORDD ( ARRAY(I), SET )

     POSITION now contains the ordinal position of ARRAY(I) within the
     values represented in the array.

Restrictions

     1)  SET must be a validated or empty set.

Version

    SPICELIB Version 1.2.0, 26-OCT-2021 (JDR)

        Added IMPLICIT NONE statement.

        Edited the header to comply with NAIF standard. Extended
        $Detailed_Output and $Exceptions section.

        Removed unnecessary $Revisions section.

    SPICELIB Version 1.1.0, 17-MAY-1994 (HAN)

        If the value of the function RETURN is .TRUE. upon execution of
        this module, this function is assigned a default value of
        either 0, 0.0D0, .FALSE., or blank depending on the type of the
        function.

    SPICELIB Version 1.0.1, 10-MAR-1992 (WLT)

         Comment section for permuted index source lines was added
         following the header.
