NAME
     vec_$sub_mult_vector - subtract two single-precision vectors, multiply by
     a third

SYNOPSIS (C)

     #include <apollo/vec.h>

     void vec_$sub_mult_vector(
          float *start_vec,
          float *sub_vec,
          float *mult_vec,
          long int &length,
          float *result_vec)

SYNOPSIS (Pascal)
     %include '/sys/ins/base.ins.pas';
     %include '/sys/ins/vec.ins.pas';

     procedure vec_$sub_mult_vector(
          in start_vec: univ vec_$real_vector;
          in sub_vec: univ vec_$real_vector;
          in mult_vec: univ vec_$real_vector;
          in length: integer32;
          out result_vec: univ vec_$real_vector);

           parameter (nvec = 10)

           integer*4 length

           call vec_$sub_mult_vector(start_vec, sub_vec, mult_vec, length, result_vec)

DESCRIPTION
     Vec_$sub_mult_vector subtracts the vector sub_vec from start_vec, multi-
     plies the result by mult_vec, and stores the final result in result_vec.
     The calculation performed is as follows:

     For each integer I such that 1 <= I <= length,
     result_vec(I) = (start_vec(I) - sub_vec(I)) x mult_vec(I)

     Note that the multiplication done by this call is point-wise.  This call
     does not perform matrix multiplication, since the product of two vectors
     is another vector of the same magnitude.

     start_vec
          A vector to be subtracted from.

     sub_vec
          A vector to be subtracted.

     mult_vec
          A multiplicand vector.

     length
          The number of elements to be operated on;  normally the same as the
          number of elements in the vectors.

     result_vec
          The vector created by subtracting sub_vec from start_vec and multi-
          plying the result by mult_vec.

NOTES
     When vec_$sub_mult_vector is used to operate on matrixes in C and Pascal,
     start_vec, sub_vec, mult_vec, and result_vec are row vectors; in FORTRAN,
     they are column vectors.

     As in all the vec_$ calls, the result array must not overlap any of the
     input arrays; the result array may be identical to an input, but must not
     contain any subset of it.   Because of pipelining, using overlapping
     input and output arrays may cause incorrect results.
