Re: Argument 0 of... was coerced to the appropriate type and thus will not change...

Remove

    scale = hdf_file->wvc_lon@scale_factor
    lon2d = stringtofloat(scale) * lon2d

printVarSummary(scale) ; <=== scale is already type float

Why use: lon2d = stringtofloat(scale) * lon2d

The error message comes because the stringtofloat expects
a string and you passed a float.
