APPEND Concatenate two data blocks
Produces the union of either two input data blocks or an input and an output data
block. Depending on parameter input, APPEND will perform the following types of
unions:
Format:
Input Data Blocks:
Output Data Block:
Parameters:.
[OUT] = IN1 IN2
[OUT] =
OUT IN1
APPEND IN1,IN2/OUT/IOPT/NULL1/NULL2/
REAL/REALD/CMPX/CMPXD/CHAR $
IN1,IN2 A pair of data blocks contributing to OUT (matrices or tables).
OUT Output data block corresponding to first pair of input data blocks.
IOPT Input-integer-default = 1. IOPT selects the method of appending.
1 append columns (or records) of IN2 to IN1 as shown in Eq. 3-1
Eq. 4-1
Eq. 4-2
2 append columns (or records) of IN1 to OUT as shown in Eq. 3-2.
IN2 is ignored.
10 write NULL2 in the next record of OUT
11 write REAL in the next record of OUT
12 write REALD in the next record of OUT
13 write CMPX in the next record of OUT
14 write CMPXD in the next record of OUT
15 write CHAR in the next record of OUT
16 write NULL2 followed by REAL in the next record of OUT
17 write NULL2 followed by REALD in the next record of OUT
18 write NULL2 followed by CMPX in the next record of OUT
