NAG AD Library
f06pa_a1w_f (dgemv_a1w)

Note: a1w denotes that first order adjoints are computed in working precision; this has the corresponding argument type nagad_a1w_w_rtype. Also available is the t1w (first order tangent linear) mode, the interface of which is implied by replacing a1w by t1w throughout this document. Additionally, the p0w (passive interface, as alternative to the FL interface) mode is available and can be inferred by replacing of active types by the corresponding passive types. The method of codifying AD implementations in the routine name and corresponding argument types is described in the NAG AD Library Introduction.

3 Description

f06pa_a1w_f is the adjoint version of the primal routine f06paf (dgemv).
f06paf (dgemv) computes the matrix-vector product for a real general matrix or its transpose. For further information see Section 3 in the documentation for f06paf (dgemv).
