NICP, ICP

For each equation type and for each continuation calculation there is a typical (``generic'') number of problem parameters that must be allowed to vary, in order for the calculations to be properly posed. The constant NICP indicates how many free parameters have been specified, while the array ICP actually designates these free parameters. The parameter that appears first in the ICP list is called the ``principal continuation parameter''. Specific examples and special cases are described below.
