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: $\mathbf{uplo}$ – 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 $\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$.

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

On entry: specifies the operation to be performed.

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

$x\leftarrow \alpha A^{-1}x$.

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

$x\leftarrow \alpha A^{-\mathrm{T}}x$.

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

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

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

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

The diagonal elements are stored explicitly.

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

The diagonal elements are assumed to be $1$ and are not referenced.

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

5: $\mathbf{n}$ – Integer Input

On entry: $n$, the order of the matrix $A$.

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

6: $\mathbf{alpha}$ – double Input

On entry: the scalar $\alpha$.

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

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array ap must be at least $\max (1,\mathbf{n}\times (\mathbf{n}+1)/2)$.

On entry: the $n\times n$ triangular matrix $A$, packed by rows or columns.

The storage of elements $A_{ij}$ depends on the order and uplo arguments as follows:

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ap}\left[(j-1)\times j/2+i-1\right]$, for $i\le j$;

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ap}\left[(2n-j)\times (j-1)/2+i-1\right]$, for $i\ge j$;

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ap}\left[(2n-i)\times (i-1)/2+j-1\right]$, for $i\le j$;

if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$,

$A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ap}\left[(i-1)\times i/2+j-1\right]$, for $i\ge j$.

If $\mathbf{diag}=\mathrm{Nag\_UnitDiag}$, the diagonal elements of $\mathrm{AP}$ are assumed to be $1$, and are not referenced; the same storage scheme is used whether $\mathbf{diag}=\mathrm{Nag\_NonUnitDiag}$ or $\mathbf{diag}=\mathrm{Nag\_UnitDiag}$.

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

Note: the dimension, dim, of the array x must be at least $\max (1,1+(\mathbf{n}-1)\left|\mathbf{incx}\right|)$.

On entry: the right-hand side vector $b$.

On exit: the solution vector $x$.

9: $\mathbf{incx}$ – Integer Input

On entry: the increment in the subscripts of x between successive elements of $x$.

Constraint: $\mathbf{incx}\ne 0$.

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

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