Arguments

1:     norm – Character(1)Input
On entry: specifies the value to be returned.
norm='1' or 'O'
The 1-norm.
norm='I'
The -norm (= the 1-norm for a symmetric matrix).
norm='F' or 'E'
The Frobenius (or Euclidean) norm.
norm='M'
The value maxi,jaij (not a norm).
Constraint: norm='1', 'O', 'I', 'F', 'E' or 'M'.
2:     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'.
3:     n – IntegerInput
On entry: n, the order of the matrix A.
When n=0, f06rdf returns zero.
Constraint: n0.
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:     work* – Real (Kind=nag_wp) arrayWorkspace
Note: the dimension of the array work must be at least max1,n  if norm='1', 'O' or 'I', and at least 1 otherwise.
