      SUBROUTINE SORTME(RA,ZBINS,N,LL,VALU,STATUS)
C
C++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
C
C.IDENTIFICATION
C  subroutine SORTME	
C.AUTHOR
C  K. Banse                  	ESO - Garching
C
C.KEYWORDS
C  sorting
C
C.PURPOSE
C  sort an array to get the median value
C
C.ALGORITHM
C  for sorting we use the Heapsort algorithm from "Numerical Recipes", page 231
C
C.INPUT/OUTPUT
C
C  call as SORTME(RA,ZBINS,N,LL,VALU,STATUS)
C
C  input par:
C  ZBINS:	R*4 array	low, high excess bins
C				if low >= high, no excess bins
C  N:		I*4		size of array RA
C  LL:		I*4		index of array element to be returned
C
C  in/output par:
C  RA:		R*4 array	array to be sorted
C
C  output par:
C  VALU:	R*4 		value = RA(LL) of sorted array RA
C  STATUS:	I*4		return status, = 0 is o.k.
