11 READ_V3C read a FEM output file of .<A HREF = "../4.IO_Functions/v3c.html">v3c</A> filetype.
12    READ_V3C is part of a suite of OPNML I/O functions 
13    to read specific filetypes pertaining to FEM model 
14    input and output.   These functions allow the user to
15    get these data files into MATLAB without copying the
16    files and removing the header info by hand.
17
18    READ_V3C reads the FEM filetype .<A HREF = "../4.IO_Functions/v3c.html">v3c</A>, as detailed in
19    &quot;Data File Standards for the Gulf of Maine Project&quot;
20    from the Numerical Methods Laboratory at Dartmouth
21    College.  (This document is located in the OPNML
22    notebook under External Documents.)  There are eight
23    columns, the first of which is the node number.  The
24    remaining columns are floating point. 
25
26    Input :   If fname is omitted, READ_V3C enables a file browser
27              with which the user can specify the .<A HREF = "../4.IO_Functions/v3c.html">v3c</A> file.
28
29              Otherwise, fname is the name of the .<A HREF = "../4.IO_Functions/v3c.html">v3c</A> file, relative
30              or absolute (fullpath), including the suffix '.<A HREF = "../4.IO_Functions/v3c.html">v3c</A>'.
31              This input is a string so it must be enclosed in single
32              quotes. The header lines are discarded.
33   Output :   The data part is returned in the variable data.
34
35              Call READ_V3C as:
36              &gt;&gt; [data,nnv]=read_v3c(fname);
37
38              If READ_V3C cannot locate the file, it exits, returning
39              a -1 instead of the data matrix.
40
41    NOTES :   The <A HREF = "../4.IO_Functions/v3c.html">v3c</A> filetype contains 3-D data; i.e., complex-valued
42              velocity data at each vertical node per horizontal node.
43              The <A HREF = "../4.IO_Functions/v3c.html">v3c</A> format has phase in degrees while related .vel
44              file has phase in radians.
45
46  Call as: [data,nnv]=read_v3c(fname);
