Function/Subroutine Documentation

subroutine dgesv (integerN, integerNRHS, double precision, dimension( lda, * )A, integerLDA, integer, dimension( * )IPIV, double precision, dimension( ldb, * )B, integerLDB, integerINFO)

DGESV computes the solution to system of linear equations A * X = B for GE matrices

Purpose:

 DGESV computes the solution to a real system of linear equations

 A * X = B,

 where A is an N-by-N matrix and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.

 The LU decomposition with partial pivoting and row interchanges is

 used to factor A as

 A = P * L * U,

 where P is a permutation matrix, L is unit lower triangular, and U is

 upper triangular. The factored form of A is then used to solve the

 system of equations A * X = B.

 

Parameters:

N

 N is INTEGER

 The number of linear equations, i.e., the order of the

 matrix A. N >= 0.

NRHS

 NRHS is INTEGER

 The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns

 of the matrix B. NRHS >= 0.

A

 A is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)

 On entry, the N-by-N coefficient matrix A.

 On exit, the factors L and U from the factorization

 A = P*L*U; the unit diagonal elements of L are not stored.

LDA

 LDA is INTEGER

 The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,N).

IPIV

 IPIV is INTEGER array, dimension (N)

 The pivot indices that define the permutation matrix P;

 row i of the matrix was interchanged with row IPIV(i).

B

 B is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)

 On entry, the N-by-NRHS matrix of right hand side matrix B.

 On exit, if INFO = 0, the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.

LDB

 LDB is INTEGER

 The leading dimension of the array B. LDB >= max(1,N).

INFO

 INFO is INTEGER

 = 0: successful exit

 < 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value

 > 0: if INFO = i, U(i,i) is exactly zero. The factorization

 has been completed, but the factor U is exactly

 singular, so the solution could not be computed.
