NAME

nrad2 - subroutine to determine the first power of 2 larger than npts.

SYNOPSIS

call nrad2(npts, npr2)

DESCRIPTION

Basic Seismic Utilities (BSU) computes first power of two larger than an input variable, npts. The subroutine is useful in padding a signal for radix 2 FFT by Robinson’s nlogn.f code. The result, npr2, will be the length that one would pad a complex signal out to.
Fortran Version
.

Arguments
npts (int)

Number of samples in a trace

npr2 (int)

Returned value (power of two) just larger than npts.

EXAMPLE:
call nrad2(1000,npr2)

For an input value of 1000, the routine will return 1024 (next power of 2 larger than 1000).
