Hi Antonio,

Wow Great!!!

I had been working on it, but I was all lost in the matrix programming in C 
stuff.  Today I was wondering if I should use say FORTRAN or just hard code 
it without matrix stuff...

You make it look so easy :-))

I will study your code and try it out!!

Thanks so much!

Cheers,

        Terry
