Two sources of vast confusion in reading the C code are these:

(1) the code uses x and y as though they're Cartesian coordinate
variables, but (inconsistently) swaps them around so that "x"
variables usually refer to the y direction in the output charts.

(2) Coordinates in the y direction (whether they are x variables or
not) increase *downwards* (charts are printed row zero first).

getcourse() where two opposite sets of conventions bump up against
each other.
