NAG AD Library Routine Document

f07fe_a1w_f (dpotrs_a1w)


Note: _a1w_ denotes that first order adjoints are computed in working precision; this has the corresponding argument type nagad_a1w_w_rtype. Further implementations, for example for higher order differentiation or using the tangent linear approach, may become available at later marks of the NAG AD Library. The method of codifying AD implementations in routine name and corresponding argument types is described in the NAG AD Library Introduction.

Description

f07fef (dpotrs) solves a real symmetric positive definite system of linear equations with multiple right-hand sides,
AX=B ,  
where A has been factorized by f07fdf (dpotrf). For further information see Section 3 in the documentation for f07fef (dpotrs).

Error Indicators and Warnings

f07fe_a1w_f uses the standard NAG ifail mechanism. Any errors indicated via info values returned by f07fef may be indicated with the same value returned by ifail. In addition, this routine may return:
ifail=-89
An unexpected AD error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.
See Section 5.2 in the NAG AD Library Introduction for further information.
ifail=-899
Dynamic memory allocation failed for AD.
See Section 5.1 in the NAG AD Library Introduction for further information.
