(j3.2006) a question on cobounds

[Loren P Meissner]

Can somebody come up with a better term than SYMMETRIC for this concept?
(Unless the term is already imbedded in the standard.) Do you mean something
like "the array size is invariant across images"? 

=

I always thought a "symmetric array" is supposed to be one where A(I, J) and
A(J, I) have the same VALUE for all I and J. This terminology is obviously
not intended here, so it needs to at least be explained away if people
continue to use it.

2) Having the cobounds the same on all images enhances the concept that THE
ARRAYS ARE SYMMETRIC ACROSS IMAGES.
