5  Arguments

1:     order – Nag_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 $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$. See Section 3.2.1.3 in the Essential Introduction for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.

Constraint: $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$.

2:     trans – Nag_TransTypeInput

On entry: specifies the operation to be performed.

$\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$

$B\leftarrow A$.

$\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_Trans}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$

$B\leftarrow A^{\mathrm{T}}$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, $\mathrm{Nag\_Trans}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$.

3:     m – IntegerInput

On entry: $m$, the number of rows of the matrix $A$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{m}\ge 0$.

4:     n – IntegerInput

On entry: $n$, the number of columns of the matrix $A$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{n}\ge 0$.

5:     a[$\mathit{dim}$] – const doubleInput

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least

• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pda}\times \mathbf{n}\right)$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\times \mathbf{pda}\right)$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$, $A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{a}\left[\left(j-1\right)\times \mathbf{pda}+i-1\right]$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$, $A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{a}\left[\left(i-1\right)\times \mathbf{pda}+j-1\right]$.

On entry: the $m$ by $n$ general matrix $A$.

6:     pda – IntegerInput

On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) of the matrix $A$ in the array a.

Constraint: $\mathbf{pda}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\right)$.

7:     b[$\mathit{dim}$] – doubleOutput

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array b must be at least

• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pdb}\times \mathbf{n}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\times \mathbf{pdb}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{pdb}\times \mathbf{m}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_Trans}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\times \mathbf{pdb}\right)$ when $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_Trans}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$ and $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$, $B_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{b}\left[\left(j-1\right)\times \mathbf{pdb}+i-1\right]$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$, $B_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{b}\left[\left(i-1\right)\times \mathbf{pdb}+j-1\right]$.

On exit: the matrix $B$; $B$ is $n$ by $k$ if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, or $k$ by $n$ otherwise.

8:     pdb – IntegerInput

On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) of the matrix $B$ in the array b.

Constraints:

• if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$, $\mathbf{pdb}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{m}\right)$;
• if $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_Trans}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ConjTrans}$, $\mathbf{pdb}\ge \max \left(1,\mathbf{n}\right)$.

9:     fail – NagError *Input/Output

The NAG error argument (see Section 3.6 in the Essential Introduction).
