Settings help

CL Name Style:


1 Purpose

f16pmc performs a rank-1 update on a real general matrix.

2 Specification

#include <nag.h>
void  f16pmc (Nag_OrderType order, Nag_ConjType conj, Integer m, Integer n, double alpha, const double x[], Integer incx, const double y[], Integer incy, double beta, double a[], Integer pda, NagError *fail)
The function may be called by the names: f16pmc, nag_blast_dger or nag_dger.

3 Description

f16pmc performs the rank-1 update operation
AαxyT+βA,  
where A is an m×n real matrix, x is an m element real vector, y is an n-element real vector, and α and β are real scalars. If m or n is equal to zero or if β is equal to one and α is equal to zero, this function returns immediately.

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: conj Nag_ConjType Input
On entry: the argument conj is not referenced if x and y are real vectors. It is suggested that you set conj=Nag_NoConj where the elements yi are not conjugated.
Constraint: conj=Nag_NoConj.
3: m Integer Input
On entry: m, the number of rows of the matrix A.
Constraint: m0.
4: n Integer Input
On entry: n, the number of columns of the matrix A.
Constraint: n0.
5: alpha double Input
On entry: the scalar α.
6: x[dim] const double Input
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array x must be at least max(1,1+(n-1)|incx|).
On entry: the n-element vector x.
If incx>0, xi must be stored in x[(i-1)×incx], for i=1,2,,m.
If incx<0, xi must be stored in x[(m-i)×|incx|], for i=1,2,,m.
Intermediate elements of x are not referenced. If m=0, x is not referenced and may be NULL.
7: incx Integer Input
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of x between successive elements of x.
Constraint: incx0.
8: y[dim] const double Input
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array y must be at least max(1,1+(n-1)|incy|).
On entry: the n-element vector y.
If incy>0, yi must be stored in y[(i-1)×incy], for i=1,2,,n.
If incy<0, yi must be stored in y[(n-i)×|incy|], for i=1,2,,n.
Intermediate elements of y are not referenced. If α=0.0 or n=0, y is not referenced and may be NULL.
9: incy Integer Input
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of y between successive elements of y.
Constraint: incy0.
10: beta double Input
On entry: the scalar β.
11: a[dim] double Input/Output
Note: the dimension, dim, of the array a must be at least
  • max(1,pda×n) when order=Nag_ColMajor;
  • max(1,m×pda) when order=Nag_RowMajor.
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].
On entry: the m×n matrix A.
On exit: the updated matrix A.
12: pda Integer Input
On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array a.
Constraints:
  • if order=Nag_ColMajor, pdamax(1,m);
  • if order=Nag_RowMajor, pdan.
13: 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, incy=value.
Constraint: incy0.
On entry, m=value.
Constraint: m0.
On entry, n=value.
Constraint: n0.
NE_INT_2
On entry, pda=value, m=value.
Constraint: pdamax(1,m).
On entry, pda=value and n=value.
Constraint: pdan.
NE_INTERNAL_ERROR
An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
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

f16pmc is not threaded in any implementation.

9 Further Comments

The argument conj is not referenced in this case where x and y are real vectors.

10 Example

Perform rank-1 update of real matrix A using vectors x and y:
A A - x yT ,  
where A is the 3×2 matrix given by
A = ( 3.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 9.0 ) ,  
x = (2.0,3.0,5.0) T   and   y = (0.0,1.0,0.0) T .
