1
Purpose

nag_mv_dend_free (g03xzc) frees Nag allocated memory for the dendrogram array in nag_mv_dendrogram (g03ehc).

2
Specification

#include <nag.h>
#include <nagg03.h>
void  nag_mv_dend_free (char ***c)

3
Description

Memory is allocated internally by nag_mv_dendrogram (g03ehc) to an array of character pointers, containing consecutive lines of the dendrogram.
nag_mv_dend_free (g03xzc) can be used to free this memory and set the value of the individual pointers in the array of character pointers to NULL.
Please note that the standard C function free() must not be used to free this memory.

References

None.
