SUBROUTINE LOGSF(P,SF)
C
C     PURPOSE--THIS SUBROUTINE COMPUTES THE SPARSITY
C              FUNCTION VALUE FOR THE LOGISTIC DISTRIBUTION 
C              WITH MEAN = 0 AND STANDARD DEVIATION = PI/SQRT(3).
C              THIS DISTRIBUTION IS DEFINED FOR ALL X AND HAS
C              THE PROBABILITY DENSITY FUNCTION
C              F(X) = EXP(X)/(1+EXP(X)).
C              NOTE THAT THE SPARSITY FUNCTION OF A DISTRIBUTION
C              IS THE DERIVATIVE OF THE PERCENT POINT FUNCTION,
C              AND ALSO IS THE RECIPROCAL OF THE PROBABILITY
C              DENSITY FUNCTION (BUT IN UNITS OF P RATHER THAN X).
C     INPUT  ARGUMENTS--P      = THE SINGLE PRECISION VALUE 
C                                (BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0)
C                                AT WHICH THE SPARSITY
C                                FUNCTION IS TO BE EVALUATED.
C     OUTPUT ARGUMENTS--SF     = THE SINGLE PRECISION
C                                SPARSITY FUNCTION VALUE.
C     OUTPUT--THE SINGLE PRECISION SPARSITY
C             FUNCTION VALUE SF.
C     PRINTING--NONE UNLESS AN INPUT ARGUMENT ERROR CONDITION EXISTS. 
C     RESTRICTIONS--P SHOULD BE BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0, EXCLUSIVELY.
C     OTHER DATAPAC   SUBROUTINES NEEDED--NONE.
C     FORTRAN LIBRARY SUBROUTINES NEEDED--NONE.
C     MODE OF INTERNAL OPERATIONS--SINGLE PRECISION.
C     LANGUAGE--ANSI FORTRAN.
