DGEMM(1) BLAS routine DGEMM(1)

NAME

DGEMM - performs one of the matrix-matrix operations C := alpha*op( A )*op( B ) + beta*C,

SYNOPSIS

DOUBLE PRECISION ALPHA,BETA INTEGER K,LDA,LDB,LDC,M,N CHARACTER TRANSA,TRANSB DOUBLE PRECISION A(LDA,*),B(LDB,*),C(LDC,*)

PURPOSE

DGEMM performs one of the matrix-matrix operations

where op( X ) is one of


op( X ) = X or op( X ) = X',

alpha and beta are scalars, and A, B and C are matrices, with op( A ) an m by k matrix, op( B ) a k by n matrix and C an m by n matrix.

ARGUMENTS

TRANSA - CHARACTER*1. On entry, TRANSA specifies the form of op( A ) to be used in the matrix multiplication as follows:

TRANSA = 'N' or 'n', op( A ) = A.

TRANSA = 'T' or 't', op( A ) = A'.

TRANSA = 'C' or 'c', op( A ) = A'.

Unchanged on exit.

TRANSB - CHARACTER*1. On entry, TRANSB specifies the form of op( B ) to be used in the matrix multiplication as follows:

TRANSB = 'N' or 'n', op( B ) = B.

TRANSB = 'T' or 't', op( B ) = B'.

TRANSB = 'C' or 'c', op( B ) = B'.

Unchanged on exit.

On entry, M specifies the number of rows of the matrix op( A ) and of the matrix C. M must be at least zero. Unchanged on exit.
On entry, N specifies the number of columns of the matrix op( B ) and the number of columns of the matrix C. N must be at least zero. Unchanged on exit.
On entry, K specifies the number of columns of the matrix op( A ) and the number of rows of the matrix op( B ). K must be at least zero. Unchanged on exit.
On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha. Unchanged on exit.
k when TRANSA = 'N' or 'n', and is m otherwise. Before entry with TRANSA = 'N' or 'n', the leading m by k part of the array A must contain the matrix A, otherwise the leading k by m part of the array A must contain the matrix A. Unchanged on exit.
On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared in the calling (sub) program. When TRANSA = 'N' or 'n' then LDA must be at least max( 1, m ), otherwise LDA must be at least max( 1, k ). Unchanged on exit.
n when TRANSB = 'N' or 'n', and is k otherwise. Before entry with TRANSB = 'N' or 'n', the leading k by n part of the array B must contain the matrix B, otherwise the leading n by k part of the array B must contain the matrix B. Unchanged on exit.
On entry, LDB specifies the first dimension of B as declared in the calling (sub) program. When TRANSB = 'N' or 'n' then LDB must be at least max( 1, k ), otherwise LDB must be at least max( 1, n ). Unchanged on exit.
On entry, BETA specifies the scalar beta. When BETA is supplied as zero then C need not be set on input. Unchanged on exit.
Before entry, the leading m by n part of the array C must contain the matrix C, except when beta is zero, in which case C need not be set on entry. On exit, the array C is overwritten by the m by n matrix ( alpha*op( A )*op( B ) + beta*C ).
On entry, LDC specifies the first dimension of C as declared in the calling (sub) program. LDC must be at least max( 1, m ). Unchanged on exit.
