5  Arguments

1:     orderNag_OrderTypeInput
On entry: the order argument specifies the two-dimensional storage scheme being used, i.e., row-major ordering or column-major ordering. C language defined storage is specified by order=Nag_RowMajor. See Section 3.2.1.3 in the Essential Introduction for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.
Constraint: order=Nag_RowMajor or Nag_ColMajor.
2:     uploNag_UploTypeInput
On entry: specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of C is stored.
uplo=Nag_Upper
The upper triangular part of C is stored.
uplo=Nag_Lower
The lower triangular part of C is stored.
Constraint: uplo=Nag_Upper or Nag_Lower.
3:     transNag_TransTypeInput
On entry: specifies the operation to be performed.
trans=Nag_NoTrans
CαAAT+βC.
trans=Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans
CαATA+βC.
Constraint: trans=Nag_NoTrans, Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans.
4:     nIntegerInput
On entry: n, the order of the matrix C; the number of rows of A if trans=Nag_NoTrans, or the number of columns of A otherwise.
Constraint: n0.
5:     kIntegerInput
On entry: k, the number of columns of A if trans=Nag_NoTrans, or the number of rows of A otherwise.
Constraint: k0.
6:     alphadoubleInput
On entry: the scalar α.
7:     a[dim]const doubleInput
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least
  • max1,pda×k when trans=Nag_NoTrans and order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • max1,n×pda when trans=Nag_NoTrans and order=Nag_RowMajor;
  • max1,pda×n when trans=Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans and order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • max1,k×pda when trans=Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans and order=Nag_RowMajor.
If order=Nag_ColMajor, Aij is stored in a[j-1×pda+i-1].
If order=Nag_RowMajor, Aij is stored in a[i-1×pda+j-1].
On entry: the matrix A; A is n by k if trans=Nag_NoTrans, or k by n otherwise.
8:     pdaIntegerInput
On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array a.
Constraints:
  • if order=Nag_ColMajor,
    • if trans=Nag_NoTrans, pda max1,n ;
    • if trans=Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans, pda max1,k ;
  • if order=Nag_RowMajor,
    • if trans=Nag_NoTrans, pdamax1,k;
    • if trans=Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans, pdamax1,n.
9:     betadoubleInput
On entry: the scalar β.
10:   c[dim]doubleInput/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array c must be at least max1,pdc×n.
On entry: the n by n symmetric matrix C.
If order=Nag_ColMajor, Cij is stored in c[j-1×pdc+i-1].
If order=Nag_RowMajor, Cij is stored in c[i-1×pdc+j-1].
If uplo=Nag_Upper, the upper triangular part of C must be stored and the elements of the array below the diagonal are not referenced.
If uplo=Nag_Lower, the lower triangular part of C must be stored and the elements of the array above the diagonal are not referenced.
On exit: the updated matrix C.
11:   pdcIntegerInput
On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) of the matrix C in the array c.
Constraint: pdcmax1,n.
12:   failNagError *Input/Output
The NAG error argument (see Section 3.6 in the Essential Introduction).
