5 Arguments

1: $\mathbf{order}$ – 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 $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$. 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: $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$.

2: $\mathbf{transr}$ – Nag_RFP_Store Input

On entry: specifies whether the RFP representation of $A$ is normal or transposed.

$\mathbf{transr}=\mathrm{Nag\_RFP\_Normal}$

The matrix $A$ is stored in normal RFP format.

$\mathbf{transr}=\mathrm{Nag\_RFP\_Trans}$

The matrix $A$ is stored in transposed RFP format.

Constraint: $\mathbf{transr}=\mathrm{Nag\_RFP\_Normal}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_RFP\_Trans}$.

3: $\mathbf{side}$ – Nag_SideType Input

On entry: specifies whether $B$ is operated on from the left or the right, or similarly whether $A$ (or its transpose) appears to the left or right of the solution matrix in the linear system to be solved.

$\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$

$B$ is pre-multiplied from the left. The system to be solved has the form $AX=\alpha B$ or $A^{\mathrm{T}}X=\alpha B$.

$\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$

$B$ is post-multiplied from the right. The system to be solved has the form $XA=\alpha B$ or $X{A}^{\mathrm{T}}=\alpha B$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$.

4: $\mathbf{uplo}$ – Nag_UploType Input

On entry: specifies whether $A$ is upper or lower triangular.

$\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$

$A$ is upper triangular.

$\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$

$A$ is lower triangular.

Constraint: $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$.

5: $\mathbf{trans}$ – Nag_TransType Input

On entry: specifies whether the operation involves $A^{-1}$ or $A^{-\mathrm{T}}$, i.e., whether or not $A$ is transposed in the linear system to be solved.

$\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$

The operation involves $A^{-1}$, i.e., $A$ is not transposed.

$\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_Trans}$

The operation involves $A^{-\mathrm{T}}$, i.e., $A$ is transposed.

Constraint: $\mathbf{trans}=\mathrm{Nag\_NoTrans}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_Trans}$.

6: $\mathbf{diag}$ – Nag_DiagType Input

On entry: specifies whether $A$ has nonunit or unit diagonal elements.

$\mathbf{diag}=\mathrm{Nag\_NonUnitDiag}$

The diagonal elements of $A$ are stored explicitly.

$\mathbf{diag}=\mathrm{Nag\_UnitDiag}$

The diagonal elements of $A$ are assumed to be $1$, the corresponding elements of ar are not referenced.

Constraint: $\mathbf{diag}=\mathrm{Nag\_NonUnitDiag}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_UnitDiag}$.

7: $\mathbf{m}$ – Integer Input

On entry: $m$, the number of rows of the matrix $B$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{m}\ge 0$.

8: $\mathbf{n}$ – Integer Input

On entry: $n$, the number of columns of the matrix $B$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{n}\ge 0$.

9: $\mathbf{alpha}$ – double Input

On entry: the scalar $\alpha$.

10: $\mathbf{ar}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – const double Input

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array ar must be at least

• $\max (1,\mathbf{m}\times (\mathbf{m}+1)/2)$ when $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$;
• $\max (1,\mathbf{n}\times (\mathbf{n}+1)/2)$ when $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$.

On entry: the $m\times m$ triangular matrix $A$ if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_LeftSide}$ or the $n\times n$ triangular matrix $A$ if $\mathbf{side}=\mathrm{Nag\_RightSide}$, stored in RFP format (as specified by transr). The storage format is described in detail in Section 3.4.3 in the F07 Chapter Introduction. If $\mathbf{alpha}=0.0$, ar is not referenced.

11: $\mathbf{b}\left[\mathit{dim}\right]$ – double Input/Output

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array b must be at least

• $\max (1,\mathbf{pdb}\times \mathbf{n})$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$;
• $\max (1,\mathbf{m}\times \mathbf{pdb})$ when $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$.

On entry: the $m\times n$ matrix $B$.

If $\mathbf{alpha}=0$, b need not be set.

On exit: the updated matrix $B$, or similarly the solution matrix $X$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$, $B_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{b}\left[(j-1)\times \mathbf{pdb}+i-1\right]$.

If $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$, $B_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{b}\left[(i-1)\times \mathbf{pdb}+j-1\right]$.

12: $\mathbf{pdb}$ – Integer Input

On entry: the stride separating row or column elements (depending on the value of order) in the array b.

Constraints:

• if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$, $\mathbf{pdb}\ge \max (1,\mathbf{m})$;
• if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$, $\mathbf{pdb}\ge \max (1,\mathbf{n})$.

13: $\mathbf{fail}$ – NagError * Input/Output

The NAG error argument (see Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library CL Interface).
