6Error Indicators and Warnings
If , argument had an illegal value. An explanatory message is output, and execution of the program is terminated.
7Accuracy
For each right-hand side vector , the computed solution is the exact solution of a perturbed system of equations , where
is a modest linear function of , and is the machine precision. This assumes .
If is the true solution, then the computed solution satisfies a forward error bound of the form
where .
Note that can be much smaller than , and (which is the same as ) can be much larger (or smaller) than .
Forward and backward error bounds can be computed by calling f07bvf, and an estimate for can be obtained by calling f07buf with .
8Parallelism and Performance
f07bsf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f07bsf makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

The total number of real floating-point operations is approximately , assuming and .
This routine may be followed by a call to f07bvf to refine the solution and return an error estimate.
