5  Arguments

1:     order – Nag_OrderTypeInput

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 3.2.1.3 in the Essential Introduction for a more detailed explanation of the use of this argument.

Constraint: $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ or Nag_ColMajor.

2:     norm – Nag_NormTypeInput

On entry: indicates whether ${\kappa }_1\left(A\right)$ or ${\kappa }_{\infty }\left(A\right)$ is estimated.

$\mathbf{norm}=\mathrm{Nag\_OneNorm}$

${\kappa }_1\left(A\right)$ is estimated.

$\mathbf{norm}=\mathrm{Nag\_InfNorm}$

${\kappa }_{\infty }\left(A\right)$ is estimated.

Constraint: $\mathbf{norm}=\mathrm{Nag\_OneNorm}$ or $\mathrm{Nag\_InfNorm}$.

3:     uplo – Nag_UploTypeInput

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 $\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$.

4:     diag – Nag_DiagTypeInput

On entry: indicates whether $A$ is a nonunit or unit triangular matrix.

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

$A$ is a nonunit triangular matrix.

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

$A$ is a unit triangular matrix; the diagonal elements are not referenced and are assumed to be $1$.

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

5:     n – IntegerInput

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

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

6:     ap[$\mathit{dim}$] – const doubleInput

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

On entry: the $n$ by $n$ 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 $\mathbf{ap}\left[\left(j-1\right)\times j/2+i-1\right]$, for $i\le j$;
• if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_ColMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$,
            $A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ap}\left[\left(2n-j\right)\times \left(j-1\right)/2+i-1\right]$, for $i\ge j$;
• if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Upper}$,
            $A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ap}\left[\left(2n-i\right)\times \left(i-1\right)/2+j-1\right]$, for $i\le j$;
• if $\mathbf{order}=\mathrm{Nag\_RowMajor}$ and $\mathbf{uplo}=\mathrm{Nag\_Lower}$,
            $A_{ij}$ is stored in $\mathbf{ap}\left[\left(i-1\right)\times i/2+j-1\right]$, 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 $\mathbf{diag}=\mathrm{Nag\_UnitDiag}$.

7:     rcond – double *Output

On exit: an estimate of the reciprocal of the condition number of $A$. rcond is set to zero if exact singularity is detected or the estimate underflows. If rcond is less than machine precision, $A$ is singular to working precision.

8:     fail – NagError *Input/Output

The NAG error argument (see Section 3.6 in the Essential Introduction).

6  Error Indicators and Warnings

NE_ALLOC_FAIL

Dynamic memory allocation failed.

NE_BAD_PARAM

On entry, argument $〈\mathit{\text{value}}〉$ had an illegal value.

NE_INT

On entry, $\mathbf{n}=〈\mathit{\text{value}}〉$.
Constraint: $\mathbf{n}\ge 0$.

NE_INTERNAL_ERROR

An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.
