ssyr: performs the symmetric rank 1 operation A := alpha*x*xaq + A,

NAME

SSYR - performs the symmetric rank 1 operation A := alpha*x*xaq + A,

SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE SSYR(UPLO,N,ALPHA,X,INCX,A,LDA)

    
REAL ALPHA

    
INTEGER INCX,LDA,N

    
CHARACTER UPLO

    
REAL A(LDA,*),X(*)

PURPOSE

SSYR performs the symmetric rank 1 operation

where alpha is a real scalar, x is an n element vector and A is an n by n symmetric matrix.

ARGUMENTS

UPLO - CHARACTER*1.
On entry, UPLO specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of the array A is to be referenced as follows:

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

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

Unchanged on exit.

N - INTEGER.
On entry, N specifies the order of the matrix A. N must be at least zero. Unchanged on exit.
ALPHA - REAL .
On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha. Unchanged on exit.
X - REAL array of dimension at least
( 1 + ( n - 1 )*abs( INCX ) ). Before entry, the incremented array X must contain the n element vector x. Unchanged on exit.
INCX - INTEGER.
On entry, INCX specifies the increment for the elements of X. INCX must not be zero. Unchanged on exit.
A - REAL array of DIMENSION ( LDA, n ).
Before entry with 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. On exit, the upper triangular part of the array A is overwritten by the upper triangular part of the updated matrix. Before entry with 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. On exit, the lower triangular part of the array A is overwritten by the lower triangular part of the updated matrix.
LDA - INTEGER.
On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared in the calling (sub) program. LDA must be at least max( 1, n ). Unchanged on exit.
