Notes

dpotrs is used to solve a real symmetric positive definite system of linear equations , this function must be preceded by a call to dpotrf() which computes the Cholesky factorization of . The solution is computed by forward and backward substitution.

If , , where is upper triangular; the solution is computed by solving and then .

If , , where is lower triangular; the solution is computed by solving and then .
