      REAL function pchst (arg1, arg2)

C***BEGIN PROLOGUE  PCHST

C***SUBSIDIARY

C***PURPOSE  PCHIP Sign-Testing Routine

C***LIBRARY   SLATEC (PCHIP)

C***TYPE      SINGLE PRECISION (PCHST-S, DPCHST-D)

C***AUTHOR  Fritsch, F. N., (LLNL)

C***DESCRIPTION

C

C         PCHST:  PCHIP Sign-Testing Routine.

C

C     Returns:

C        -1. if ARG1 and ARG2 are of opposite sign.

C         0. if either argument is zero.

C        +1. if ARG1 and ARG2 are of the same sign.

C

C     The object is to do this without multiplying ARG1*ARG2, to avoid

C     possible over/underflow problems.

C

C  Fortran intrinsics used:  SIGN.
