Path: SpacecraftEstimation/StellarAttDet

% Create the k vector from an array of data
 The k vector gives the number of elements in the sorted data that lie below a
 linear fit - k(i) gives the number of elements below z(i), where the line z is
 defined as

   z(i) = m*i + q

 The k indices are for the sorted data. If the data is not sorted on input, it
 will be and the sorted data is returned in s.

 Type CreateKVector for a demo (produces 2 figures).
