CLANGE(1) LAPACK auxiliary routine (version 3.2) CLANGE(1)

NAME

CLANGE - returns the value of the one norm, or the Frobenius norm, or the infinity norm, or the element of largest absolute value of a complex matrix A

SYNOPSIS

CLANGE( NORM, M, N, A, LDA, WORK )

CHARACTER NORM INTEGER LDA, M, N REAL WORK( * ) COMPLEX A( LDA, * )

PURPOSE

CLANGE returns the value of the one norm, or the Frobenius norm, or the infinity norm, or the element of largest absolute value of a complex matrix A.

DESCRIPTION

CLANGE returns the value
CLANGE = ( max(abs(A(i,j))), NORM = 'M' or 'm'
(
( norm1(A), NORM = '1', 'O' or 'o'
(
( normI(A), NORM = 'I' or 'i'
(
( normF(A), NORM = 'F', 'f', 'E' or 'e' where norm1 denotes the one norm of a matrix (maximum column sum), normI denotes the infinity norm of a matrix (maximum row sum) and normF denotes the Frobenius norm of a matrix (square root of sum of squares). Note that max(abs(A(i,j))) is not a consistent matrix norm.

ARGUMENTS

Specifies the value to be returned in CLANGE as described above.
The number of rows of the matrix A. M >= 0. When M = 0, CLANGE is set to zero.
The number of columns of the matrix A. N >= 0. When N = 0, CLANGE is set to zero.
The m by n matrix A.
The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(M,1).
where LWORK >= M when NORM = 'I'; otherwise, WORK is not referenced.
