NAG FL Interface
f06fdf (axpzy)

1 Purpose

f06fdf multiplies a real vector by a scalar, preserving the input vector.

2 Specification

Fortran Interface
Subroutine f06fdf ( n, alpha, x, incx, y, incy)
Integer, Intent (In) :: n, incx, incy
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (In) :: alpha, x(*)
Real (Kind=nag_wp), Intent (Inout) :: y(*)
C Header Interface
#include <nag.h>
void  f06fdf_ (const Integer *n, const double *alpha, const double x[], const Integer *incx, double y[], const Integer *incy)
The routine may be called by the names f06fdf or nagf_blas_axpzy.

3 Description

f06fdf performs the operation
yαx  
where x and y are n-element real vectors scattered with stride incx and incy respectively, and α is a real scalar.

4 References

None.

5 Arguments

1: n Integer Input
On entry: n, the number of elements in x and y.
2: alpha Real (Kind=nag_wp) Input
On entry: the scalar α.
3: x* Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input
Note: the dimension of the array x must be at least max1, 1+n-1 ×incx .
On entry: the n-element vector x.
If incx>0, xi must be stored in x1+i-1×incx, for i=1,2,,n.
If incx<0, xi must be stored in x1-n-i×incx, for i=1,2,,n.
Intermediate elements of x are not referenced.
4: incx Integer Input
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of x between successive elements of x.
5: y* Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input/Output
Note: the dimension of the array y must be at least max1, 1+n-1 ×incy .
On entry: if incy1, intermediate elements of y may contain values and will not be referenced; the other elements will be overwritten and need not be set.
On exit: the elements yi of the vector y will be stored in y as follows.
If incy>0, yi will be stored in y1+i-1×incy, for i=1,2,,n.
If incy<0, yi will be stored in y1-n-i×incy, for i=1,2,,n.
Intermediate elements of y are unchanged.
6: incy Integer Input
On entry: the increment in the subscripts of y between successive elements of y.
