palDat.c

/*

*  Name:
*     palDat

*  Purpose:
*     Return offset between UTC and TAI

*  Language:
*     Starlink ANSI C

*  Type of Module:
*     Library routine

*  Invocation:
*     dat = palDat( double utc );

*  Arguments:
*     utc = double (Given)
*        UTC date as a modified JD (JD-2400000.5)

*  Returned Value:
*     dat = double
*        TAI-UTC in seconds

*  Description:
*     Increment to be applied to Coordinated Universal Time UTC to give
*     International Atomic Time (TAI).

*  Authors:
*     TIMJ: Tim Jenness (JAC, Hawaii)
*     {enter_new_authors_here}

*  Notes:
*     - This routine converts the MJD argument to calendar date before calling
*       the SOFA/ERFA eraDat function.
*     - This routine matches the slaDat interface which differs from the eraDat
*       interface. Consider coding directly to the SOFA/ERFA interface.
*     - See eraDat for a description of error conditions when calling this function
*       with a time outside of the UTC range.
*     - The status argument from eraDat is ignored. This is reasonable since the
*       error codes are mainly related to incorrect calendar dates when calculating
*       the JD internally.

*  History:
*     2012-02-08 (TIMJ):
*        Initial version
*        Adapted with permission from the Fortran SLALIB library
*        although the core algorithm is now from SOFA.
