Re: setSamples() array error

The array passed to the Gridded3DSet constructor is dimensioned:
 
  float[domain_dimension][number_of_samples] 
 
and the array passed to FlatField.setSamples() is dimensioned:
 
  float[range_dimension][number_of_samples]
 
There is no constraint on number_of_samples in the Gridded3DSet
constructor because it goes first.  That is, the Gridded3DSet is
an argument to the FlatField constructor that determines the
number of samples in the FlatField.  Once that number has been
determined, then number_of_samples in the setSamples() method
is constrained to be equal to the value in the Gridded3DSet
constructor.

The length of an array passed to FlatField.setSamples() must be
equal to the number of samples defined in the Set passed to the
FlatField constructor.
