3 Description
Given
sequences of
complex data values
, for
and
, C06PRF simultaneously calculates the (
forward or
backward) discrete Fourier transforms of all the sequences defined by
(Note the scale factor
in this definition.) The minus sign is taken in the argument of the exponential within the summation when the forward transform is required, and the plus sign is taken when the backward transform is required.
A call of C06PRF with followed by a call with will restore the original data.
The routine uses a variant of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm (see
Brigham (1974)) known as the Stockham self-sorting algorithm, which is described in
Temperton (1983). Special code is provided for the factors
,
,
and
.

5 Parameters
- 1: – CHARACTER(1)Input
-
On entry: if the forward transform as defined in
Section 3 is to be computed, then
DIRECT must be set equal to 'F'.
If the backward transform is to be computed then
DIRECT must be set equal to 'B'.
Constraint:
or .
- 2: – INTEGERInput
-
On entry: , the number of sequences to be transformed.
Constraint:
.
- 3: – INTEGERInput
-
On entry: , the number of complex values in each sequence.
Constraint:
.
- 4: – COMPLEX (KIND=nag_wp) arrayInput/Output
-
On entry: the complex data must be stored in
X as if in a two-dimensional array of dimension
; each of the
sequences is stored in a
row of each array.
In other words, if the elements of the
th sequence to be transformed are denoted by
, for
, then
must contain
.
On exit: is overwritten by the complex transforms.
- 5: – COMPLEX (KIND=nag_wp) arrayWorkspace
-
Note: the dimension of the array
WORK
must be at least
.
The workspace requirements as documented for C06PRF may be an overestimate in some implementations.
On exit: the real part of
contains the minimum workspace required for the current values of
M and
N with this implementation.
- 6: – INTEGERInput/Output
-
On entry:
IFAIL must be set to
,
. If you are unfamiliar with this parameter you should refer to
Section 3.3 in the Essential Introduction for details.
For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value
is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value
is recommended. Otherwise, if you are not familiar with this parameter, the recommended value is
.
When the value is used it is essential to test the value of IFAIL on exit.
On exit:
unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see
Section 6).
6 Error Indicators and Warnings
If on entry
or
, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by
X04AAF).
Errors or warnings detected by the routine:
-
-
-
On entry, | or . |
-
An unexpected error has occurred in an internal call. Check all subroutine calls and array dimensions. Seek expert help.
An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please

7 Accuracy
Some indication of accuracy can be obtained by performing a subsequent inverse transform and comparing the results with the original sequence (in exact arithmetic they would be identical).
8 Parallelism and Performance
C06PRF is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
C06PRF makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the
X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the
Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.
The time taken by C06PRF is approximately proportional to , but also depends on the factors of . C06PRF is fastest if the only prime factors of are , and , and is particularly slow if is a large prime, or has large prime factors.
10 Example
This example reads in sequences of complex data values and prints their discrete Fourier transforms (as computed by C06PRF with ). Inverse transforms are then calculated using C06PRF with and printed out, showing that the original sequences are restored.
