Note: a1w denotes that first order adjoints are computed in working precision; this has the corresponding argument type nagad_a1w_w_rtype. Also available is the t1w (first order tangent linear) mode, the interface of which is implied by replacing a1w by t1w throughout this document. Additionally, the p0w (passive interface, as alternative to the FL interface) mode is available and can be inferred by replacing of active types by the corresponding passive types. The method of codifying AD implementations in the routine name and corresponding argument types is described in the NAG AD Library Introduction.

## 1Purpose

e01bg_a1w_f is the adjoint version of the primal routine e01bgf.

## 2Specification

Fortran Interface
 Subroutine e01bg_a1w_f ( ad_handle, n, x, f, d, m, px, pf, pd, ifail)
 Integer, Intent (In) :: n, m Integer, Intent (Inout) :: ifail Type (nagad_a1w_w_rtype), Intent (In) :: x(n), f(n), d(n), px(m) Type (nagad_a1w_w_rtype), Intent (Out) :: pf(m), pd(m) Type (c_ptr), Intent (Inout) :: ad_handle
The routine may be called by the names e01bg_a1w_f or nagf_interp_dim1_monotonic_deriv_a1w. The corresponding t1w and p0w variants of this routine are also available.

## 3Description

e01bg_a1w_f is the adjoint version of the primal routine e01bgf.
e01bgf evaluates a piecewise cubic Hermite interpolant and its first derivative at a set of points. For further information see Section 3 in the documentation for e01bgf.
