;
; @file_comments
; gives Julian day equivalent of a date given in yyyymmdd format
; This is the inverse of the function <pro>jul2date</pro>.
;
; @categories
; Calendar
;
; @param date {in}{required} {type=long or double, scalar or array}
; longword integer with yyyymmdd format or double-precision
; floating-point with yyyymmdd.xx where xx is the fraction of the day
; (xx=0 at 0am and 5 at 12am) 
;
; @keyword GRADS
; if  1 <= year <= 49 --> year = 2000 + year
; if 50 <= year <= 99 --> year = 1900 + year
;
; @keyword MONTH
; Set this keyword equal to a named variable that will receive a
; longword integer or longword integer array representing the number of
; the desired month (1 = January, ..., 12 = December). 
;
; @keyword DAY
; Set this keyword equal to a named variable that will receive a
; longword integer or longword integer array representing the number of
; the day of the month (1-31).  
;
; @keyword YEAR
; Set this keyword equal to a named variable that will receive a
; longword integer or longword integer array representing the number of
; the desired year (e.g., 1994).  
;
; @keyword HOUR
; Set this keyword equal to a named variable that will receive a
; longword integer or longword integer array representing the number of
; the hour of the day (0-23).  
; 
; @keyword MINUTE
; Set this keyword equal to a named variable that will receive a
; longword integer or longword integer array representing the number of
; the minute of the hour (0-59).  
;  
; @keyword SECOND
; Set this keyword equal to a named variable that will receive a
; double-precision floating-point value or a double-precision
; floating-point array representing the number of the second of the
; minute (0-59).
;
; @returns
; Julian day with the same format (long or double) as the input parameter
;
; @restrictions
; Input param must be longword integer or double-precision floating-point
