Description

f06ppf (dsyr) performs the symmetric rank-1 update operation
AαxxT+A ,  
where A is an n by n real symmetric matrix, x is an n-element real vector, and α is a real scalar.

Arguments

1:     uplo – Character(1)Input
On entry: specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of A is stored.
uplo='U'
The upper triangular part of A is stored.
uplo='L'
The lower triangular part of A is stored.
Constraint: uplo='U' or 'L'.
2:     n – IntegerInput
On entry: n, the order of the matrix A.
Constraint: n0.
3:     alpha – Real (Kind=nag_wp)Input
On entry: the scalar α.
4:     x* – Real (Kind=nag_wp) arrayInput
Note: the dimension of the array x must be at least max1, 1+n-1 ×incx .
On entry: the n-element vector x.
If incx>0, xi must be stored in x1+i-1×incx, for i=1,2,,n.
If incx<0, xi must be stored in x1-n-i×incx, for i=1,2,,n.
Intermediate elements of x are not referenced.
5:     incx – IntegerInput
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of x between successive elements of x.
Constraint: incx0.
6:     alda* – Real (Kind=nag_wp) arrayInput/Output
Note: the second dimension of the array a must be at least max1,n.
On entry: the n by n symmetric matrix A.
  • If uplo='U', the upper triangular part of A must be stored and the elements of the array below the diagonal are not referenced.
  • If uplo='L', the lower triangular part of A must be stored and the elements of the array above the diagonal are not referenced.
On exit: the updated matrix A.
7:     lda – IntegerInput
On entry: the first dimension of the array a as declared in the (sub)program from which f06ppf (dsyr) is called.
Constraint: lda max1,n .
