I'm trying to translate the fortran code and I can't figure out what the line:

DO i = increment+1, SIZE(a)

means? Could that be translated into C-style code? --Mwn3d 08:34, 20 May 2008 (MDT)

Try

for (i=increment; i<=(Number of elements in array)-1; i++)

Note by default fortran arrays are 1 based while C arrays are 0 based

That did it. Thanks. --Mwn3d 11:32, 20 May 2008 (MDT)
