AHELP for CIAO 3.4 cast Context: sherpa

Synopsis

[REMOVED AS OF CIAO 3.0.2] Casts a dataset to single or double precision.

Description

This command was removed from CIAO at version 3.0.2.

Sherpa internals have been updated to work with double-precision data only. This does not affect data entry: single-precision data are cast to double-precision, etc. The CAST command has been eliminated as it is now obsolete.

Bugs

See the Sherpa bug pages online for an up-to-date listing of known bugs.
