DTRSV(1) BLAS routine DTRSV(1)

NAME

DTRSV - solves one of the systems of equations A*x = b, or A'*x = b,

SYNOPSIS

INTEGER INCX,LDA,N CHARACTER DIAG,TRANS,UPLO DOUBLE PRECISION A(LDA,*),X(*)

PURPOSE

DTRSV solves one of the systems of equations

where b and x are n element vectors and A is an n by n unit, or non-unit, upper or lower triangular matrix.

No test for singularity or near-singularity is included in this routine. Such tests must be performed before calling this routine.

ARGUMENTS

On entry, UPLO specifies whether the matrix is an upper or lower triangular matrix as follows:

UPLO = 'U' or 'u' A is an upper triangular matrix.

UPLO = 'L' or 'l' A is a lower triangular matrix.

Unchanged on exit.

On entry, TRANS specifies the equations to be solved as follows:

TRANS = 'N' or 'n' A*x = b.

TRANS = 'T' or 't' A'*x = b.

TRANS = 'C' or 'c' A'*x = b.

Unchanged on exit.

On entry, DIAG specifies whether or not A is unit triangular as follows:

DIAG = 'U' or 'u' A is assumed to be unit triangular.

DIAG = 'N' or 'n' A is not assumed to be unit triangular.

Unchanged on exit.

On entry, N specifies the order of the matrix A. N must be at least zero. Unchanged on exit.
Before entry with UPLO = 'U' or 'u', the leading n by n upper triangular part of the array A must contain the upper triangular matrix and the strictly lower triangular part of A is not referenced. Before entry with UPLO = 'L' or 'l', the leading n by n lower triangular part of the array A must contain the lower triangular matrix and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not referenced. Note that when DIAG = 'U' or 'u', the diagonal elements of A are not referenced either, but are assumed to be unity. Unchanged on exit.
On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared in the calling (sub) program. LDA must be at least max( 1, n ). Unchanged on exit.
( 1 + ( n - 1 )*abs( INCX ) ). Before entry, the incremented array X must contain the n element right-hand side vector b. On exit, X is overwritten with the solution vector x.
On entry, INCX specifies the increment for the elements of X. INCX must not be zero. Unchanged on exit.
