1:     $\mathrm{N}$ – INTEGERInput

On entry: $n$, the number of elements in $x$.

2:     $\mathrm{X}\left(*\right)$ – REAL (KIND=nag_wp) arrayInput

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

On entry: the $n$-element vector $x$. $x_{\mathit{i}}$ must be stored in $\mathbf{X}\left(1+\left(\mathit{i}-1\right)\times \mathbf{INCX}\right)$, for $\mathit{i}=1,2,\dots ,\mathbf{N}$.

Intermediate elements of X are not referenced.

3:     $\mathrm{INCX}$ – INTEGERInput

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

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

4:     $\mathrm{XMAX}$ – REAL (KIND=nag_wp)Output

On exit: the value $x_{\max }={\displaystyle \underset{i}{\max }}\left|x_i\right|$.

5:     $\mathrm{XMIN}$ – REAL (KIND=nag_wp)Output

On exit: the value $x_{\min }={\displaystyle \underset{i}{\min }}\left|x_i\right|$.
