MPIATY - Given the area identifier of one of the areas defined by whatever database was last read by one

       To  use MPIATY or c_mpiaty, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in
       that order.

       The C-binding argument description is the same as the FORTRAN argument description.

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       int c_mpiaty (int iain)

       IAIN        is  an  input expression of type INTEGER, specifying the area identifier of a particular area
                   of interest.

       Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant example: mpex12.

       MPIATY - Given the area identifier of one of the areas defined by whatever database was last read by one
       of the EZMAPB routines MPLNAM, MPLNDM, MPLNDR, and MPLNRI, this function returns the area type of the
       area.

       IATY=MPIATY(IAIN)

       The statement "IATY=MPIATY(IAIN)" retrieves in IATY the area type of the area with area identifier  IAIN.
       For example, if IMAD is the area identifier of the little island in Lake Superior called "Lake Madeline",
       then MPIATY(IMAD) is 4, implying that this island is a portion of a state.
