#### Procedure
       SpiceDouble vtmv_c ( ConstSpiceDouble v1     [3],
                            ConstSpiceDouble matrix [3][3],
                            ConstSpiceDouble v2     [3] )
#### Abstract
        Multiply the transpose of a 3-dimensional column vector,
        a 3x3 matrix, and a 3-dimensional column vector.
#### Required_Reading
        None.
#### Keywords
        MATRIX,  VECTOR
#### Brief_I/O
        VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
        --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
         v1        I     3 dimensional double precision column vector.
         matrix    I     3x3 double precision matrix.
         v2        I     3 dimensional double precision column vector.

         The function returns the result of (v1**t * matrix * v2 ).
#### Detailed_Input
        v1         This may be any 3-dimensional, double precision
                   column vector.

        matrix     This may be any 3x3, double precision matrix.

        v2         This may be any 3-dimensional, double precision
                   column vector.
#### Detailed_Output
        the function returns the double precision value of the equation
        (v1**t * matrix * v2 ).

        Notice that vtmv_c is actually the dot product of the vector
        resulting from multiplying the transpose of v1 and matrix and the
        vector v2.
#### Parameters
        None.
#### Exceptions
       Error free.
#### Files
        None.
#### Particulars
        This routine implements the following vector/matrix/vector
        multiplication:

                              T
           vtmv_c = |   v1   | |          |  |  |
                               |  matrix  |  |v2|
                               |          |  |  |

        v1 is a column vector which becomes a row vector when transposed.
        v2 is a column vector.

        No checking is performed to determine whether floating point
        overflow has occurred.
#### Examples
        if  v1 = | 2.0 |   matrix = |  0.0  1.0  0.0 |
                 |     |            |                |
                 | 4.0 |            | -1.0  0.0  0.0 |
                 |     |            |                |
                 | 6.0 |            |  0.0  0.0  1.0 |

            v2 = | 1.0 |
                 |     |
                 | 1.0 |
                 |     |
                 | 1.0 |

        then function value is equal to 4.0.
