SUBROUTINE PNORM
PURPOSE
NORMALIZE COEFFICIENT VECTOR OF A POLYNOMIAL
USAGE
CALL PNORM(X,IDIMX,EPS)
DESCRIPTION OF PARAMETERS
X - VECTOR OF ORIGINAL COEFFICIENTS, ORDERED FROM
SMALLEST TO LARGEST POWER. IT REMAINS UNCHANGED
IDIMX - DIMENSION OF X. IT IS REPLACED BY FINAL DIMENSION
EPS - TOLERANCE BELOW WHICH COEFFICIENT IS ELIMINATED
REMARKS
IF ALL COEFFICIENTS ARE LESS THAN EPS, RESULT IS A ZERO
POLYNOMIAL WITH IDIMX=0 BUT VECTOR X REMAINS INTACT
SUBROUTINES AND FUNCTION SUBPROGRAMS REQUIRED
NONE
METHOD
DIMENSION OF VECTOR X IS REDUCED BY ONE FOR EACH TRAILING
COEFFICIENT WITH AN ABSOLUTE VALUE LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO EPS
