1  Purpose

F16DRF computes, with respect to absolute value, the smallest component of an integer vector, along with the index of that component.

2  Specification

SUBROUTINE F16DRF ( N, X, INCX, K, I)
INTEGER  N, X(1+(N-1)*ABS(INCX)), INCX, K, I

3  Description

F16DRF computes, with respect to absolute value, the smallest component, i, of an n-element integer vector x, and determines the smallest index, k, such that
i=xk=minjxj.

5  Parameters

1:     N – INTEGERInput
On entry: n, the number of elements in x.
2:     X1+N-1×INCX – INTEGER arrayInput
On entry: the n-element vector x.
If INCX>0, xi must be stored in Xi-1×INCX+1, for i=1,2,,N.
If INCX<0, xi must be stored in XN-i×INCX+1, for i=1,2,,N.
Intermediate elements of X are not referenced. If N=0, X is not referenced.
3:     INCX – INTEGERInput
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of X between successive elements of x.
Constraint: INCX0.
4:     K – INTEGEROutput
On exit: k, the index, from the set 1,1+INCX,,1+N-1×INCX , of the smallest component of x with respect to absolute value. If N0 on input then K is returned as 0.
5:     I – INTEGEROutput
On exit: i, the smallest component of x with respect to absolute value. If N0 on input then I is returned as 0.

6  Error Indicators and Warnings

If INCX=0, an error message is printed and program execution is terminated.

7  Accuracy

The BLAS standard requires accurate implementations which avoid unnecessary over/underflow (see Section 2.7 of Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms Technical (BLAST) Forum (2001)).

8  Parallelism and Performance

Not applicable.

9  Further Comments

None.

10  Example
