dlantp(3P)

NAME

dlantp - return the value of the one norm, or the Frobenius norm, or the infinity norm, or the element of largest absolute value of a triangular matrix A, supplied in packed form

SYNOPSIS

DOUBLE PRECISION
FUNCTION DLANTP( NORM, UPLO, DIAG, N, AP, WORK )

double dlantp(char norm, char uplo, char diag, long int n,
double ∗ap)

CHARACTER DIAG, NORM, UPLO

INTEGER N

DOUBLE PRECISION AP( ∗ ), WORK( ∗ )

PURPOSE

DLANTP  returns the value of the one norm,  or the Frobenius norm, or the  infinity norm,  or the  element of  largest absolute value  of a triangular matrix A, supplied in packed form. 
 

DESCRIPTION

DLANTP returns the value
 
   DLANTP = ( max(abs(A(i,j))), NORM = ’M’ or ’m’
            (
            ( norm1(A),         NORM = ’1’, ’O’ or ’o’
            (
            ( normI(A),         NORM = ’I’ or ’i’
            (
            ( normF(A),         NORM = ’F’, ’f’, ’E’ or ’e’
 
where  norm1  denotes the  one norm of a matrix (maximum column sum), normI  denotes the  infinity norm  of a matrix  (maximum row sum) and normF  denotes the  Frobenius norm of a matrix (square root of sum of squares).  Note that  max(abs(A(i,j)))  is not a  matrix norm.
 

ARGUMENTS

NORM    (input) CHARACTER∗1
Specifies the value to be returned in DLANTP as described above.

UPLO    (input) CHARACTER∗1
Specifies whether the matrix A is upper or lower triangular. = ’U’:  Upper triangular
= ’L’:  Lower triangular

DIAG    (input) CHARACTER∗1
Specifies whether or not the matrix A is unit triangular. = ’N’:  Non-unit triangular
= ’U’:  Unit triangular

N       (input) INTEGER
The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.  When N = 0, DLANTP is set to zero.

AP      (input) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N∗(N+1)/2)
The upper or lower triangular matrix A, packed columnwise in a linear array.  The j-th column of A is stored in the array AP as follows: if UPLO = ’U’, AP(i + (j-1)∗j/2) = A(i,j) for 1<=i<=j; if UPLO = ’L’, AP(i + (j-1)∗(2n-j)/2) = A(i,j) for j<=i<=n. Note that when DIAG = ’U’, the elements of the array AP corresponding to the diagonal elements of the matrix A are not referenced, but are assumed to be one.

WORK    (workspace) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LWORK),
where LWORK >= N when NORM = ’I’; otherwise, WORK is not referenced.
