#### Procedure
       ordd_c ( The ordinal position of an element in a set )

       SpiceInt ordd_c ( SpiceDouble     item,
                         SpiceCell     * set  )
#### Abstract
       Return the ordinal position of a given item in a set. If the
       item does not appear in the set, return -1.

#### Brief_I/O
       VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
       --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
       item       I   An item to locate within a set.
       set        I   A set to search for a given item.

       The function returns the ordinal position of item within the set.
#### Detailed_Input
       item        is a double precision value to be located within a set.

       set         is a properly validated SPICE set that is to be
                   searched for the occurrence of `item'.

                   `set' must be declared as a double precision SpiceCell.

                   CSPICE provides the following macro, which declares and
                   initializes the cell

                      SPICEDOUBLE_CELL        ( set, SETSZ );

                   where SETSZ is the maximum capacity of `set'.
#### Detailed_Output
       The function returns the ordinal position of `item' within `set'.
       Ordinal positions range from 0 to N-1, where N is the cardinality of
       the set.

       If `item' is not an element of `set', the function returns -1.
#### Parameters
       None.
#### Exceptions
       1)  If the input set has invalid cardinality, an error is signaled
           by a routine in the call tree of this routine. ordd_c returns an
           unspecified value in this case.

       2)  If the input set has invalid size, an error is signaled by a
           routine in the call tree of this routine. ordd_c returns an
           unspecified value in this case.

       3)  If the `set' cell argument has a type other than SpiceDouble,
           the error SPICE(TYPEMISMATCH) is signaled. The function
           returns the value -1.

       4)  If the `set' cell argument does not qualify as a SPICE set,
           the error SPICE(NOTASET) is signaled. SPICE sets have their
           data elements stored in increasing order and contain no
           duplicate elements. The function returns the value -1.
#### Files
       None.
#### Particulars
       A natural ordering can be imposed upon the elements of any
       SPICE set, be it integer, character or double precision. For
       character strings the ASCII collating sequence serves as the
       ordering relation, for double precision and integer variables
       the arithmetic ordering is used.

       Given any element of a set, its location within this ordered
       sequence of elements is called its ordinal position within
       the set.

       In common mathematical usage, ordinal positions of elements
       in a set of cardinality N range from 1 to N. In C programs,
       it is much more convenient to use the range 0 to N-1; this is
       the convention used in CSPICE.

       For illustrative purposes suppose that set represents the set

          { 8., 1., 2., 9., 7., 4., 10. }

       The ordinal position of:

           8. is 4
           1. is 0
           2. is 1
           9. is 5
           7. is 3
           4. is 2
          10. is 6
#### Examples
       The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
       platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
       input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
       specific arithmetic implementation.

       1) Obtain the ordinal positions shown in the table of the -Particulars
          section above.

          Example code begins here.

          /.
             Program ordd_ex1
          ./
          #include <stdio.h>
          #include "SpiceUsr.h"

          int main()
          {
             /.
             Declare a double precision set and populate it with
             the elements shown above.
             ./
             #define MAXSIZ         7

             SPICEDOUBLE_CELL ( set, MAXSIZ );

             SpiceDouble            inputs [MAXSIZ] =
                                    {
                                       8.0, 1.0, 2.0, 9.0, 7.0, 4.0, 10.0
                                    };

             SpiceInt               expected [MAXSIZ] =
                                    {
                                       4, 0, 1, 5, 3, 2, 6
                                    };

             SpiceInt               i;
             SpiceDouble            dElt;

             /.
             Create the set.
             ./

             for ( i = 0;  i < MAXSIZ;  i++ )
             {
                insrtd_c ( inputs[i], &set );
             }

             /.
             Examine the ordinal positions of the set's elements.
             Extract each element and verify that ordd_c gives the
             index at which the element is located.
             ./

             for ( i = 0;  i < card_c(&set);  i++ )
             {
                dElt = inputs[i];

                if (  ordd_c(dElt, &set)  !=  expected[i]  )
                {
                   setmsg_c ( "Position of # was expected to be # "
                              "but was actually #."                 );
                   errdp_c  ( "#",  dElt                            );
                   errdp_c  ( "#",  expected[i]                     );
                   errint_c ( "#",  ordd_c(dElt,&set)               );
                   sigerr_c ( "INVALID LOCATION"                    );
                }
                printf( "%2d  is the ordinal position of %f\n",
                         (int)expected[i], dElt                     );
             }

             return ( 0 );
          }

          When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/cc/64-bit
          platform, the output was:

           4  is the ordinal position of 8.000000
           0  is the ordinal position of 1.000000
           1  is the ordinal position of 2.000000
           5  is the ordinal position of 9.000000
           3  is the ordinal position of 7.000000
           2  is the ordinal position of 4.000000
           6  is the ordinal position of 10.000000
