#### Procedure
       void prsdp_c ( ConstSpiceChar     * string,
                      SpiceDouble        * dpval  )
#### Abstract
       Parse a string as a double precision number, encapsulating error
       handling.
#### Required_Reading
       None.
#### Keywords
       NUMBER
       PARSING
#### Brief_I/O
       Variable  I/O  Description
       --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
       string     I   String representing a d.p. number.
       dpval      O   D.p. value obtained by parsing string.
#### Detailed_Input
       string         is a string representing a double precision
                      number.  Any string acceptable to the CSPICE
                      routine nparsd.c is allowed.
#### Detailed_Output
       dpval          is the double precision number obtained by parsing
                      string.
#### Parameters
       None.
#### Exceptions
       1) If the input string pointer is null, the error
          SPICE(NULLPOINTER) will be signaled.

       2) If the input string does not contain at least one character,
          the error SPICE(EMPTYSTRING) will be signaled.

       3) If the input string cannot be parsed, the error
          SPICE(NOTADPNUMBER) is signalled.
#### Files
       None.
#### Particulars
       The purpose of this routine is to enable safe parsing of double
       precision numbers without the necessity of in-line error checking.
       This routine is based on the CSPICE routine nparsd.c.
#### Examples
       See the routine NPARSD for an examples of allowed strings.
#### Restrictions
       None.
#### Literature_References
       None.

#### Version
       -CSPICE Version 1.1.2, 26-AUG-1999 (NJB)

          Header was updated to list string exceptions.

       -CSPICE Version 1.1.1, 25-MAR-1998 (EDW)

          Minor corrections to header.

       -CSPICE Version 1.1.0, 08-FEB-1998 (NJB)

          References to C2F_CreateStr_Sig were removed; code was
          cleaned up accordingly.  String checks are now done using
          the macro CHKFSTR.

       -CSPICE Version 1.0.0, 25-OCT-1997

          Based on SPICELIB Version 1.0.0, 22-JUL-1997 (NJB)
