3. Course plotting Statically allocate an array with XYZ position element structures. Statically allocate an array with XYZ position element structures. Array size determined statically by maxpts ~4096 elements (to be revised) Array size determined statically by maxpts ~4096 elements (to be revised) Array points predefined – guidance computer compares YZ coordinates with X coordinate line-of-flight index Array points predefined – guidance computer compares YZ coordinates with X coordinate line-of-flight index

4. X-axis indexing …… X-axis is line of flight X/Y/Z structural elements Discrete coordinate points i105 -10.5 -200.6 Course “target” points referenced/indexed by missile progress along x-axis
