5  Parameters

1:     UPLO – CHARACTER(1)Input

On entry: specifies whether $A$ is upper or lower triangular.

$\mathbf{UPLO}=\text{'U'}$

$A$ is upper triangular.

$\mathbf{UPLO}=\text{'L'}$

$A$ is lower triangular.

Constraint: $\mathbf{UPLO}=\text{'U'}$ or $\text{'L'}$.

2:     TRANS – CHARACTER(1)Input

On entry: specifies the operation to be performed.

$\mathbf{TRANS}=\text{'N'}$

$x\leftarrow Ax$.

$\mathbf{TRANS}=\text{'T'}$ or $\text{'C'}$

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

Constraint: $\mathbf{TRANS}=\text{'N'}$, $\text{'T'}$ or $\text{'C'}$.

3:     DIAG – CHARACTER(1)Input

On entry: specifies whether $A$ has nonunit or unit diagonal elements.

$\mathbf{DIAG}=\text{'N'}$

The diagonal elements are stored explicitly.

$\mathbf{DIAG}=\text{'U'}$

The diagonal elements are assumed to be $1$, and are not referenced.

Constraint: $\mathbf{DIAG}=\text{'N'}$ or $\text{'U'}$.

4:     N – INTEGERInput

On entry: $n$, the order of the matrix $A$.

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

5:     A(LDA,$*$) – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayInput

Note: the second dimension of the array A must be at least $\mathbf{N}$.

On entry: the $n$ by $n$ triangular matrix $A$.

• If $\mathbf{UPLO}=\text{'U'}$, $A$ is upper triangular and the elements of the array below the diagonal are not referenced.
• If $\mathbf{UPLO}=\text{'L'}$, $A$ is lower triangular and the elements of the array above the diagonal are not referenced.
• If $\mathbf{DIAG}=\text{'U'}$, the diagonal elements of $A$ are assumed to be $1$, and are not referenced.

6:     LDA – INTEGERInput

On entry: the first dimension of the array A as declared in the (sub)program from which F06PFF (DTRMV) is called.

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

7:     X($*$) – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayInput/Output

Note: the dimension of the array X must be at least $\max \left(1,1+\left(\mathbf{N}-1\right)\times \left|\mathbf{INCX}\right|\right)$.

On entry: the $n$-element vector $x$.

If $\mathbf{INCX}>0$, $x_{\mathit{i}}$ must be stored in $\mathbf{X}\left(1+\left(\mathit{i}–1\right)\times \mathbf{INCX}\right)$, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,\mathbf{N}$.

If $\mathbf{INCX}<0$, $x_{\mathit{i}}$ must be stored in $\mathbf{X}\left(1–\left(\mathbf{N}–\mathit{i}\right)\times \mathbf{INCX}\right)$, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,\mathbf{N}$.

On exit: the updated vector $x$ stored in the array elements used to supply the original vector $x$.

8:     INCX – INTEGERInput

On entry: the increment in the subscripts of X between successive elements of $x$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{INCX}\ne 0$.
