NAME

     addmap - form  a  linear  combination  of  two  datasets  of
     equivalent structure

SYNOPSIS

     addmap [-qv] [argument= value ...]

DESCRIPTION

     addmap forms an output dataset from the  linear  combination
     of two input datasets A and B with optional scaling:

          out = a * A + b * B

     The output dataset is numbered from 0 and is as long as  the
     smaller of the two input ranges.

OPTIONS

     a=float             The  scaling  value  for  the  matrix  A
                         (default 1.0).

     inA=name            The dataset name of the matrix A.

     b=float             The  scaling  value  for  the  matrix  B
                         (default 1.0).

     inB=name            The dataset name of the matrix B.

     out=name            The dataset name of the output matrix.
