Re: can't reproduce eof_demo

[Ansley Manke <ansley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Antonio,
There were changes in the eof functions between the first version
of Ferret where they were included and later versions.  What version
of Ferret are you running on, and what operating system?

You may have an older version of ef_eof_demo.jnl.  The journal file
that comes in the jnls/examples directory of the Ferret release is up to
date and correct.  You want to eliminate the second argument, not
the third.  I hope that will solve the problem.

    LET eof_xyfcn = eof_space(sst, 0.5)

To check things like the number of arguments a function has, the
command "SHOW FUNCTION eof_space" is useful.  More details
can be seen with "SHOW FUNCTION/DETAILS"
