      DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION EXACT ( NUMBER, VALUE, TOL )
 

Abstract

     Round an input double precision number to a specified exact value
     if the number and the value are equal to within some tolerance.

Brief_I/O

     VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
     --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
     NUMBER     I   Double precision number.
     VALUE      I   Target value.
     TOL        I   Tolerance.

     The function returns VALUE whenever |NUMBER - VALUE| < TOL.

Detailed_Input

     NUMBER      is an arbitrary double precision number.

     VALUE       is a target value.

     TOL         is a tolerance. NUMBER and VALUE are considered to
                 be equal if they differ by no more than this amount.
                 If TOL is negative, they are never considered equal.

Detailed_Output

     The function returns VALUE whenever |NUMBER - VALUE| < TOL, and
     otherwise returns NUMBER.                            -
