CL Name Style:


1 Purpose

f16pfc performs matrix-vector multiplication for a real triangular matrix.

2 Specification

#include <nag.h>
void  f16pfc (Nag_OrderType order, Nag_UploType uplo, Nag_TransType trans, Nag_DiagType diag, Integer n, double alpha, const double a[], Integer pda, double x[], Integer incx, NagError *fail)

5 Arguments

1: order Nag_OrderType Input
On entry: the order argument specifies the two-dimensional storage scheme being used, i.e., row-major ordering or column-major ordering. C language defined storage is specified by order=Nag_RowMajor. See Section 3.1.3 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.
Constraint: order=Nag_RowMajor or Nag_ColMajor.
2: uplo Nag_UploType Input
On entry: specifies whether A is upper or lower triangular.
uplo=Nag_Upper
A is upper triangular.
uplo=Nag_Lower
A is lower triangular.
Constraint: uplo=Nag_Upper or Nag_Lower.
3: trans Nag_TransType Input
On entry: specifies the operation to be performed.
trans=Nag_NoTrans
xαAx.
trans=Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans
xαATx.
Constraint: trans=Nag_NoTrans, Nag_Trans or Nag_ConjTrans.
4: diag Nag_DiagType Input
On entry: specifies whether A has nonunit or unit diagonal elements.
diag=Nag_NonUnitDiag
The diagonal elements are stored explicitly.
diag=Nag_UnitDiag
The diagonal elements are assumed to be 1 and are not referenced.
Constraint: diag=Nag_NonUnitDiag or Nag_UnitDiag.
5: n Integer Input
On entry: n, the order of the matrix A.
Constraint: n0.
6: alpha double Input
On entry: the scalar α.
7: a[dim] const double Input
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least max(1,pda×n).
On entry: the n×n triangular matrix A.
If order=Nag_ColMajor, Aij is stored in a[(j-1)×pda+i-1].
If order=Nag_RowMajor, Aij is stored in a[(i-1)×pda+j-1].
If uplo=Nag_Upper, the upper triangular part of A must be stored and the elements of the array below the diagonal are not referenced.
If uplo=Nag_Lower, the lower triangular part of A must be stored and the elements of the array above the diagonal are not referenced.
If diag=Nag_UnitDiag, the diagonal elements of A are assumed to be 1, and are not referenced.
8: pda Integer Input
On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) of the matrix A in the array a.
Constraint: pdamax(1,n).
9: x[dim] double Input/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array x must be at least max(1,1+(n-1)|incx|).
On entry: the right-hand side vector b.
On exit: the solution vector x.
10: incx Integer Input
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of x between successive elements of x.
Constraint: incx0.
11: fail NagError * Input/Output
The NAG error argument (see Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface).

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

NE_ALLOC_FAIL
Dynamic memory allocation failed.
See Section 3.1.2 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.
NE_BAD_PARAM
On entry, argument value had an illegal value.
NE_INT
On entry, incx=value.
Constraint: incx0.
On entry, n=value.
Constraint: n0.
NE_INT_2
On entry, pda=value, n=value.
Constraint: pdamax(1,n).
NE_NO_LICENCE
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 8 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface for further information.

7 Accuracy

The BLAS standard requires accurate implementations which avoid unnecessary over/underflow (see Section 2.7 of Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms Technical (BLAST) Forum (2001)).

8 Parallelism and Performance

f16pfc is not threaded in any implementation.

9 Further Comments

None.
