COMMENT

na12.mod

Sodium channel, Hodgkin-Huxley style kinetics.

Kinetics were fit to data from Huguenard et al. (1988) and Hamill et
al. (1991)

qi is not well constrained by the data, since there are no points
between -80 and -55.  So this was fixed at 5 while the thi1,thi2,Rg,Rd
were optimized using a simplex least square proc

voltage dependencies are shifted approximately from the best
fit to give higher threshold

Cleaned code up a bit.
Made threadsafe and replaced vtrap0 with efun,
which is a better approximation in the vicinity of a singularity.
See na.mod in ModelDB entry 2488.

Special comment:

This mechanism borrowed heavily from na.mod in ModelDB entry 2488.
That code, which was intended to be used only at 37 deg C 
(see comments from 20120514 in that file),
calculated ionic conductance as the product
  g = tadj*gbar*product_of_gating_variables
where
  tadj = q10^((celsius - temp)/10)
  temp is the "reference temperature" (at which the gating variable
    time constants were originally determined)
  celsius is the "operating temperature"
This deviates from the standard HH formula
  g = gbar*product_of_gating_variables
and has the unfortunate consequence of not only making the 
effective channel density differ from the nominal (i.e. user-assigned) 
channel density, but it would also make the effective channel density
depend on temperature!
Sooner or later this is guaranteed to confound studies of the effects 
of temperature on model operation.
It would also be a debugging nightmare, not least because
the ModelView tool--so handy for discovering the properties of a 
model and verifying a close match between the computational model
and the conceptual model--would report the NOMINAL channel density,
not the effective channel density.

To eliminate this problem, every statement of the form
  g = tadj*gbar*gating variables
has been replaced by 
  g = gbar*gating variables
Furthermore, the numerical value assigned to gbar,
whether by an assignment statement in the PARAMETER block
or by a hoc or Python statement, 
must now use the actual conductance density.
For this particular mechanism, tadj at 37 deg C is 3.20936
so the actual conductance density is 3.20936 times 
the nominal conductance density.
