3 *  Name:
4 *     palEpco
5 
6 *  Purpose:
7 *     Convert an epoch into the appropriate form - 'B' or 'J'
8 
9 *  Language:
10 *     Starlink ANSI C
11 
12 *  Type of Module:
13 *     Library routine
14 
15 *  Invocation:
16 *     double palEpco( char k0, char k, double e );
17 
18 *  Arguments:
19 *     k0 = char (Given)
20 *       Form of result: 'B'=Besselian, 'J'=Julian
21 *     k = char (Given)
22 *       Form of given epoch: 'B' or 'J'.
23 
24 *  Description:
25 *     Converts a Besselian or Julian epoch to a Julian or Besselian
26 *     epoch.

32 
33 *  Notes:
34 *     - The result is always either equal to or very close to
35 *       the given epoch E.  The routine is required only in
36 *       applications where punctilious treatment of heterogeneous
37 *       mixtures of star positions is necessary.
38 *     - k and k0 are case insensitive. This differes slightly from the
39 *       Fortran SLA implementation.
40 *     - k and k0 are not validated. They are interpreted as follows:
41 *       o If k0 and k are the same the result is e
42 *       o If k0 is 'b' or 'B' and k isn't the conversion is J to B.
43 *       o In all other cases, the conversion is B to J.
44

46 *     2012-03-01 (TIMJ):
47 *        Initial version. Documentation from SLA/F.
