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:     ap* – Real (Kind=nag_wp) arrayInput
Note: the dimension of the array ap must be at least n× n+1/2 .
On entry: the n by n symmetric matrix A, packed by columns.
More precisely,
  • if uplo='U', the upper triangle of A must be stored with element Aij in api+jj-1/2 for ij;
  • if uplo='L', the lower triangle of A must be stored with element Aij in api+2n-jj-1/2 for ij.
5:     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.
6:     incx – IntegerInput
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of x between successive elements of x.
Constraint: incx0.
7:     beta – Real (Kind=nag_wp)Input
On entry: the scalar β.
8:     y* – Real (Kind=nag_wp) arrayInput/Output
Note: the dimension of the array y must be at least max1, 1+n-1 ×incy .
On entry: the n-element vector y, if beta=0.0 y need not be set.
If incy>0, yi must be stored in y1+i1×incy , for i=1,2,,n.
If incy<0, yi must be stored in y1ni×incy , for i=1,2,,n.
On exit: the updated vector y stored in the array elements used to supply the original vector y.
9:     incy – IntegerInput
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of y between successive elements of y.
Constraint: incy0.
