 MEANING: Argument of user-supplied subroutines
 CONTEXT: User-supplied routines

 DISCUSSION:
 ICALL is an argument passed by NONMEM to user-supplied subroutines
 CCONTR, CONTR, CRIT, PRED and MIX.                                      L

 PREDPP selectively passes the same argument to PK,  ERROR,  and  INFN.
 ICALL  can  be  used  in $PK, $ERROR, and $PRED abbreviated code.  The
 discussion below describes the values of ICALL as seen by PRED.

 ICALL=0: the routine has been called for initialization at the  begin-
 ning of the NONMEM run; one such call per run.

 ICALL=1: the routine has been called for initialization at the  begin-
 ning of a NONMEM problem; one such call per problem.

 ICALL=2: the routine has been called for a prediction. Multiple  calls
 occur.

 ICALL=3: the routine has been called for finalization at the end of  a
 NONMEM problem; one such call per problem.

 ICALL=4: the routine has been called during the Simulation Step;  mul-
 tiple calls occur, as with ICALL=2.

 ICALL=5: the routine has been called when expectations are being  com-
 puted; multiple calls occur.

 ICALL=6: the routine has been called when raw data averages are  being
 computed; multiple calls occur.

 Note: Some subroutines are called with only a subset of  the  possible
 values of ICALL.
