plmindex(1)

PlmIndex

Compute the index of an array corresponding to degree l and angular order m.

Usage

index = PlmIndex (l, m)

Parameters

index : function output, integer(int32)
    Index of an array of associated Legendre functions corresponding to degree l and angular order m.

l : input, integer(int32)
    The spherical harmonic degree.

m : input, integer(int32)
    The angular order.

Description

PlmIndex will calculate the index of an array of associated Legendre functions corresponding to degree l and angular order m. The input arrays are generated by routines such as PlmBar, PlmBar_d1, PlmSchmidt, PlmSchmidt_d1, PlmON, PlmON_d1, PLegendreA, and PLegendreA_d1. The array index is equal to l*(l+1)/2+m+1.
