Coordinate System Tables
Associated with each coordinate system is a table, which should have the
following entries:
| key | data type | value |
|---|---|---|
| NAME | CCTK_STRING | Cart3d|Spher3d|.... |
| DIMENSION | CCTK_INT | 1,2,3,... |
| TYPE | CCTK_STRING | uniform|nonuniform|warped|mixed |
| COORDINATES | CCTK_INT array | <coord1>,...<coord_dimension> |
The values for the coordinates array are the handles for the coordinate tables (see section A3.7.2). The NAME and DIMENSION fields are filled out when Coord_SystemRegister() is called. The COORDINATES field is filled out by Coord_CoordRegister(). It is left for the coordinate thorn to fill out the TYPE field.
