Parameters
normstr, length 1

Indicates whether or is estimated.

or

is estimated.

is estimated.

nint

, the order of the matrix .

afloat, array-like, shape

The factorization of , as returned by dgetrf().

anormfloat

If or , the -norm of the original matrix .

If , the -norm of the original matrix .

may be computed by calling blas.dlange with the same value for the argument .

must be computed either before calling dgetrf() or else from a copy of the original matrix .

Returns
rcondfloat

An estimate of the reciprocal of the condition number of . is set to zero if exact singularity is detected or the estimate underflows. If is less than machine precision, is singular to working precision.

Raises
NagValueError
(errno )

On entry, error in parameter .

Constraint: , or .

(errno )

On entry, error in parameter .

Constraint: .

(errno )

On entry, error in parameter .

Constraint: .

Notes

dgecon estimates the condition number of a real matrix , in either the -norm or the -norm:

Note that .

Because the condition number is infinite if is singular, the function actually returns an estimate of the reciprocal of the condition number.

The function should be preceded by a call to blas.dlange to compute or , and a call to dgetrf() to compute the factorization of . The function then uses Higham’s implementation of Hager’s method (see Higham (1988)) to estimate or .
