  1.  NAME

  flagdata - Flag data

  2.  SYNOPSIS

  [data, flags] = flagdata(data, lim, options )

  3.  DESCRIPTION

  This function parses the input data and flags them as bad according to
  specified limits. The synthax of this vector is defined in stat(5m).
  This function returns a list of flags for each data being tested.
  These have the following meaning:

     -Inf
        Corresponding data was less than minimal value,and limit mode
        was inside.

     +Inf
        Corresponding data was more than maximal value,and limit mode
        was inside.

     1  Corresponding data passed the limit test.

     0  Corresponding data was inside intervall,but limit mode was set
        to outside.

     NaN
        Corresponding data was already set to NaN on input.

  4.  PARAMETERS

     data
        Array (MxN) of M variables,with N different values that should
        be flagged.

     lim
        Array (Mx3) specifying the limits for the M variables.

     options keyword , value
        The rest of the arguments is a list of options. See below for
        implemented options.

  5.  OPTIONS

  Implemented options are:

     -hdg vector
        Non-NaN values in the specified vector correspond to column
        numbers in data containing heading values. These are converted
        within 0 and 360 before applying the limit tests.

  6.  RETURNS

     data
        Array (MxN),with all data not passing the limit test set to NaN.

     flags
        Array (MxN) with the flags valeus resulting from the limit tests
        " as described above.
