1 Purpose

f06rdf returns, via the function name, the value of the 1-norm, the -norm, the Frobenius norm, or the maximum absolute value of the elements of a real n×n symmetric matrix, stored in packed form.

2 Specification

5 Arguments

1: norm Character(1) Input
On entry: specifies the value to be returned.
norm='1' or 'O'
The 1-norm.
norm='I'
The -norm (= the 1-norm for a symmetric matrix).
norm='F' or 'E'
The Frobenius (or Euclidean) norm.
norm='M'
The value maxi,j|aij| (not a norm).
Constraint: norm='1', 'O', 'I', 'F', 'E' or 'M'.
2: uplo Character(1) Input
On entry: specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of A is stored.
uplo='U'
The upper triangular part of A is stored.
uplo='L'
The lower triangular part of A is stored.
Constraint: uplo='U' or 'L'.
3: n Integer Input
On entry: n, the order of the matrix A.
When n=0, f06rdf returns zero.
Constraint: n0.
4: ap(*) Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input
Note: the dimension of the array ap must be at least n× (n+1)/2 .
On entry: the n×n symmetric matrix A, packed by columns.
More precisely,
  • if uplo='U', the upper triangle of A must be stored with element Aij in ap(i+j(j-1)/2) for ij;
  • if uplo='L', the lower triangle of A must be stored with element Aij in ap(i+(2n-j)(j-1)/2) for ij.
5: work(*) Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Workspace
Note: the dimension of the array work must be at least max(1,n) if norm='1', 'O' or 'I', and at least 1 otherwise.
