astTran1 - Transform 1-dimensional coordinates   

Description:
This function applies a Mapping to transform the coordinates of a set of points in one dimension.

Synopsis:
void astTran1( AstMapping *this, int npoint, const double xin[], int forward, double xout[] )

Parameters:
this
Pointer to the Mapping to be applied.
npoint
The number of points to be transformed.
xin
An array of "npoint" coordinate values for the input (untransformed) points.
forward
A non-zero value indicates that the Mapping's forward coordinate transformation is to be applied, while a zero value indicates that the inverse transformation should be used.
xout
An array (with "npoint" elements) into which the coordinates of the output (transformed) points will be written.

Notes:
  • The Mapping supplied must have the value 1 for both its Nin and Nout attributes.
