f07cec computes the solution to a real system of linear equations
or
, where
is an
by
tridiagonal matrix and
and
are
by
matrices, using the
factorization returned by
f07cdc.
f07cec should be preceded by a call to
f07cdc, which uses Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting and row interchanges to factorize the matrix
as
where
is a permutation matrix,
is unit lower triangular with at most one nonzero subdiagonal element in each column, and
is an upper triangular band matrix, with two superdiagonals.
f07cec then utilizes the factorization to solve the required equations.

The NAG error argument (see
Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface).
The computed solution for a single right-hand side,
, satisfies an equation of the form
where
and
is the
machine precision. An approximate error bound for the computed solution is given by
where
, the condition number of
with respect to the solution of the linear equations. See Section 4.4 of
Anderson et al. (1999) for further details.
Following the use of this function
f07cgc can be used to estimate the condition number of
and
f07chc can be used to obtain approximate error bounds.
The complex analogue of this function is
f07csc.
This example solves the equations
