1 Purpose

m01ebf rearranges a vector of integer numbers into the order specified by a vector of ranks.

2 Specification

Fortran Interface
Subroutine m01ebf ( iv, m1, m2, irank, ifail)
Integer, Intent (In) :: m1, m2
Integer, Intent (Inout) :: iv(m2), irank(m2), ifail
C Header Interface
#include <nag.h>
void  m01ebf_ (Integer iv[], const Integer *m1, const Integer *m2, Integer irank[], Integer *ifail)
The routine may be called by the names m01ebf or nagf_sort_intvec_rank_rearrange.

3 Description

m01ebf is designed to be used typically in conjunction with the ranking routines m01daf, m01dbf, m01dcf, m01def, m01dff, m01djf, m01dkf and m01dzf. After one of those routines has been called to determine a vector of ranks, m01ebf can be called to rearrange a vector of integer numbers into the rank order. If the vector of ranks has been generated in some other way, then m01zbf should be called to check its validity before m01ebf is called.

5 Arguments

1: iv(m2) Integer array Input/Output
On entry: elements m1 to m2 of iv must contain integer values to be rearranged.
On exit: these values are rearranged into rank order. For example, if irank(i)=m1, then the initial value of iv(i) is moved to iv(m1).
2: m1 Integer Input
3: m2 Integer Input
On entry: m1 and m2 specify the range of the ranks supplied in irank and the elements of iv to be rearranged.
Constraint: 0<m1m2.
4: irank(m2) Integer array Input/Output
On entry: elements m1 to m2 of irank must contain a permutation of the integers m1 to m2, which are interpreted as a vector of ranks.
On exit: used as internal workspace prior to being restored and hence is unchanged.
5: ifail Integer Input/Output
On entry: ifail must be set to 0, −1 or 1 to set behaviour on detection of an error; these values have no effect when no error is detected.
A value of 0 causes the printing of an error message and program execution will be halted; otherwise program execution continues. A value of −1 means that an error message is printed while a value of 1 means that it is not.
If halting is not appropriate, the value −1 or 1 is recommended. If message printing is undesirable, then the value 1 is recommended. Otherwise, the value 0 is recommended. When the value -1 or 1 is used it is essential to test the value of ifail on exit.
On exit: ifail=0 unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

If on entry ifail=0 or −1, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by x04aaf).
Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
ifail=1
On entry, m1=value.
Constraint: m11.
On entry, m1=value and m2=value.
Constraint: m1m2.
On entry, m2=value.
Constraint: m21.
ifail=2
irank(m1:m2) does not contain a permutation of the integers m1 to m2. irank(I) contains an out-of-range value: I=value, irank(I)=value.
Elements m1 to m2 of irank do not contain a permutation of the integers m1 to m2. On exit, the contents of iv may be corrupted. To check the validity of irank without the risk of corrupting iv, use m01zbf.
ifail=3
irank(m1:m2) does not contain a permutation of the integers m1 to m2. irank contains a repeated value: value.
Elements m1 to m2 of irank do not contain a permutation of the integers m1 to m2. On exit, the contents of iv may be corrupted. To check the validity of irank without the risk of corrupting iv, use m01zbf.
ifail=-99
An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.

7 Accuracy

Not applicable.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.
m01ebf is not threaded in any implementation.

9 Further Comments

The average time taken by the routine is approximately proportional to n, where n=m2-m1+1.

10 Example

This example reads a matrix of integers and rearranges its rows so that the elements of the kth column are in ascending order. To do this, the program first calls m01dbf to rank the elements of the kth column, and then calls m01ebf to rearrange each column into the order specified by the ranks. The value of k is read from the datafile.
