Mapping FISH from Old to New FLAC3D Syntax

This document lists FISH function names from FLAC3D 5 (and earlier) and provides links to their FLAC3D 6 (and later) counterparts. They are organized into FLAC3D-specific functions and general FISH functions, and subdivided from there into groups according to the kind of operations they perform. Tip: using page search for the browser (Ctrl+F) can help locate a function quickly; the list below is extensive.

See the Notes section at the end of the page for various details of usage.

Table 1: This Page: FISH Functions by Group

FLAC3D-Intrinsic Functions	FISH Intrinsic Functions
General FLAC3D Functions	Mathematical and Utility Functions
Zone Functions	Table Functions
Zone Gridpoint Functions	Memory-access Functions
Zone Field Data Functions	Plotting Functions
Zone Interface Functions	Input-Output Functions
Zone Interface Element Functions	Socket I/O Routines

Warning

There will not necessarily be a direct mapping of old to new function arguments nor of return types. FLAC3D 6.0 takes advantage on occasion of the new types available in FISH (tensors, matrices, etc.) to streamline FISH intrinsics.

Notes

There has been small upgrade to LIST FISH intrinsics, you can now add a string filter. This will give the list of intrinsics whose name somewhere matches the string given. For example LIST FISH INT “gp” will list now list only those FISH intrinsics containing “gp”.
