[ncl-talk] low memory algorithm for sorting ? how large is INT_MAX ?

[Adam Herrington]

the error message:

fatal:dim_pqsort: one or more input dimensions sizes are greater than
INT_MAX
^Mfatal:["Execute.c":8640]:Execute: Error occurred at or near line 294 in
file omega3d_pdf_samples.ncl

A snippet of the code:

     dtcond1d = ndtooned(DTCOND)
     delete(DTCOND)
     npts = dimsizes(dtcond1d)
     kflag=2
     ip = dim_pqsort(dtcond1d,kflag)

     ;;95th
     tmp = npts*0.95
     iptf = tointeger(floor(tmp))
     dtlimhi(2) = dtcond1d(iptf)
