5  Parameters

1:     NORM – CHARACTER(1)Input

On entry: indicates whether ${\kappa }_1\left(A\right)$ or ${\kappa }_{\infty }\left(A\right)$ is estimated.

$\mathbf{NORM}=\text{'1'}$ or $\text{'O'}$

${\kappa }_1\left(A\right)$ is estimated.

$\mathbf{NORM}=\text{'I'}$

${\kappa }_{\infty }\left(A\right)$ is estimated.

Constraint: $\mathbf{NORM}=\text{'1'}$, $\text{'O'}$ or $\text{'I'}$.

2:     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 $\text{'L'}$.

3:     DIAG – CHARACTER(1)Input

On entry: indicates whether $A$ is a nonunit or unit triangular matrix.

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

$A$ is a nonunit triangular matrix.

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

$A$ is a unit triangular matrix; the diagonal elements are not referenced and are assumed to be $1$.

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:     AP($*$) – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayInput

Note: the dimension of the array AP must be at least $\max \left(1,\mathbf{N}\times \left(\mathbf{N}+1\right)/2\right)$.

On entry: the $n$ by $n$ triangular matrix $A$, packed by columns.

More precisely,

• if $\mathbf{UPLO}=\text{'U'}$, the upper triangle of $A$ must be stored with element $A_{ij}$ in $\mathbf{AP}\left(i+j\left(j-1\right)/2\right)$ for $i\le j$;
• if $\mathbf{UPLO}=\text{'L'}$, the lower triangle of $A$ must be stored with element $A_{ij}$ in $\mathbf{AP}\left(i+\left(2n-j\right)\left(j-1\right)/2\right)$ for $i\ge j$.

If $\mathbf{DIAG}=\text{'U'}$, the diagonal elements of $A$ are assumed to be $1$, and are not referenced; the same storage scheme is used whether $\mathbf{DIAG}=\text{'N'}$ or ‘U’.

6:     RCOND – REAL (KIND=nag_wp)Output

On exit: an estimate of the reciprocal of the condition number of $A$. RCOND is set to zero if exact singularity is detected or the estimate underflows. If RCOND is less than machine precision, $A$ is singular to working precision.

7:     WORK($3\times \mathbf{N}$) – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayWorkspace

8:     IWORK(N) – INTEGER arrayWorkspace

9:     INFO – INTEGEROutput

On exit: $\mathbf{INFO}=0$ unless the routine detects an error (see Section 6).

6  Error Indicators and Warnings

$\mathbf{INFO}<0$

If $\mathbf{INFO}=-i$, the $i$th parameter had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.
