Hi Joerg,

Yes - gradm1() is much more efficient that dudxyz(), which is antiquated.

dudxyz() returns only one component of the gradient at a time and there
is work that is duplicated for each call.   The work for gradm1() is 
equivalent to a single call to dudxyz() and you get all 3 components
in a single call to gradm1().

The results are the same.

Paul

Hi,

in terms of calculating a gradient: is there a difference between routines gradm1 and dudxyz except that the latter is supplying additional
information about the mapping?

Thanks, Joerg.
