%% R8_TO_I4 maps X in [XMIN, XMAX] to integer IX in [IXMIN, IXMAX].
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    IX := IXMIN + ( IXMAX - IXMIN ) * ( X - XMIN ) / ( XMAX - XMIN )
%    IX := min ( IX, max ( IXMIN, IXMAX ) )
%    IX := max ( IX, min ( IXMIN, IXMAX ) )

%
%  Input:
%
%    real XMIN, XMAX, the range.  XMAX and
%    XMIN must not be equal.  It is not necessary that XMIN be less than XMAX.
%
%    real X, the number to be converted.
%
%    integer IXMIN, IXMAX, the allowed range of the output
%    variable.  IXMAX corresponds to XMAX, and IXMIN to XMIN.
%    It is not necessary that IXMIN be less than IXMAX.
%
%  Output:
%
%    integer IX, the value in the range [IXMIN,IXMAX] that
%    corresponds to X.
