NAME

SSYMM - performs one of the matrix-matrix operations C := alpha*A*B + beta*C,

SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE SSYMM(SIDE,UPLO,M,N,ALPHA,A,LDA,B,LDB,BETA,C,LDC)

    

REAL ALPHA,BETA

    

INTEGER LDA,LDB,LDC,M,N

    

CHARACTER SIDE,UPLO

    

REAL A(LDA,*),B(LDB,*),C(LDC,*)

PURPOSE

SSYMM performs one of the matrix-matrix operations

or

C := alpha*B*A + beta*C,

where alpha and beta are scalars, A is a symmetric matrix and B and C are m by n matrices.

ARGUMENTS

SIDE - CHARACTER*1.

On entry, SIDE specifies whether the symmetric matrix A appears on the left or right in the operation as follows:

SIDE = aqLaq or aqlaq C := alpha*A*B + beta*C,

SIDE = aqRaq or aqraq C := alpha*B*A + beta*C,

Unchanged on exit.

UPLO - CHARACTER*1.

On entry, UPLO specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix A is to be referenced as follows:

UPLO = aqUaq or aquaq Only the upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix is to be referenced.

UPLO = aqLaq or aqlaq Only the lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix is to be referenced.

Unchanged on exit.

M - INTEGER.

On entry, M specifies the number of rows of the matrix C. M must be at least zero. Unchanged on exit.

N - INTEGER.

On entry, N specifies the number of columns of the matrix C. N must be at least zero. Unchanged on exit.

ALPHA - REAL .

On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha. Unchanged on exit.

A - REAL array of DIMENSION ( LDA, ka ), where ka is

m when SIDE = aqLaq or aqlaq and is n otherwise. Before entry with SIDE = aqLaq or aqlaq, the m by m part of the array A must contain the symmetric matrix, such that when UPLO = aqUaq or aquaq, the leading m by m upper triangular part of the array A must contain the upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly lower triangular part of A is not referenced, and when UPLO = aqLaq or aqlaq, the leading m by m lower triangular part of the array A must contain the lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not referenced. Before entry with SIDE = aqRaq or aqraq, the n by n part of the array A must contain the symmetric matrix, such that when UPLO = aqUaq or aquaq, the leading n by n upper triangular part of the array A must contain the upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly lower triangular part of A is not referenced, and when UPLO = aqLaq or aqlaq, the leading n by n lower triangular part of the array A must contain the lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not referenced. Unchanged on exit.

LDA - INTEGER.

On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared in the calling (sub) program. When SIDE = aqLaq or aqlaq then LDA must be at least max( 1, m ), otherwise LDA must be at least max( 1, n ). Unchanged on exit.

B - REAL array of DIMENSION ( LDB, n ).

Before entry, the leading m by n part of the array B must contain the matrix B. Unchanged on exit.

LDB - INTEGER.

On entry, LDB specifies the first dimension of B as declared in the calling (sub) program. LDB must be at least max( 1, m ). Unchanged on exit.

BETA - REAL .

On entry, BETA specifies the scalar beta. When BETA is supplied as zero then C need not be set on input. Unchanged on exit.

C - REAL array of DIMENSION ( LDC, n ).

Before entry, the leading m by n part of the array C must contain the matrix C, except when beta is zero, in which case C need not be set on entry. On exit, the array C is overwritten by the m by n updated matrix.

LDC - INTEGER.

On entry, LDC specifies the first dimension of C as declared in the calling (sub) program. LDC must be at least max( 1, m ). Unchanged on exit.
