naginterfaces.library.blas.zdscal

naginterfaces.library.blas.zdscal(alpha, x)

zdscal scales a complex vector by a real scalar.

For full information please refer to the NAG Library document for f06jd

https://support.nag.com/numeric/nl/nagdoc_30/flhtml/f06/f06jdf.html

Parameters

alphafloat

The scalar $\alpha$.

xcomplex, array-like, shape $\left(n\right)$

The $n$-element vector $x$.

Returns

xcomplex, ndarray, shape $\left(n\right)$

The vector $\alpha x$.

Raises

NagValueError

(errno $4$)

On entry, error in parameter $\text{incx}$.

Constraint: $\text{incx}>0$.

Notes

No equivalent traditional C interface for this routine exists in the NAG Library.

zdscal performs the operation

$$x\leftarrow \alpha x$$

where $x$ is an $n$-element complex vector, and $\alpha$ is a real scalar.
