Just a general query for clarity, since this appears to be a warning and not an error. Every time I run the script below I receive the following message: "ncap2: WARNING size(): Function has been called with more than one argument"
// Preparing/initializing some variables:

for(*idx=0;idx<idx_end;idx++){
if(idx<idx_cutoff) prcp_sort(idx)=0.0;
prcp(idx)=prcp_sort(sort_map(idx));
}
// c) Convert prcp values to normalized (relative) prcp: prcp_norm=prcp/sum(prcp):
// Require prcp_sum for normalizing prcp into prcp_norm:
prcp_sum=prcp.ttl($time);
for(*idx=0;idx<idx_end;idx++){
// normalize the volume of rain
prcp_norm(idx)=prcp(idx)/prcp_sum;
// create prcp temp file by multiplying the filtered and normalized rain volumes (kg/m2/3hr)/(kg/m2/mth) by the average monthly volume (kg/m2/mth)
prcp_temp(idx)=prcp_norm(idx)*prcp_mth_vol;
// convert rain volume temp into rain rate template (kg/m2/sec)
prcp_template(idx)=prcp_temp(idx)/10800;
}
// Check to ensure the sum of prcp ratios equals one:
check=prcp_norm.ttl($time);
if(check != 1) print(check);
As you can see, at no point do I use .size(), which means that I guess it is being called as a part of something else (perhaps .ttl()?). Either way, I would be interested to know why this warning is thrown and what the implications are.
Thanks, as always,
