saxpy(3P)

NAME

saxpy - Compute y := alpha ∗ x + y

SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE SAXPY (N, ALPHA, X, INCY, Y, INCY )

void saxpy(long int n, float sa, float ∗sx, long int incx,
float ∗sy, long int incy)

REAL    ALPHA

INTEGER INCX, INCY, N

REAL    X( ∗ ), Y( ∗ )

PURPOSE

SAXPY - Compute y := alpha ∗ x + y where alpha is a scalar and x and y are n-vectors. 
 

PARAMETERS

N      - INTEGER. 
On entry, N specifies the number of elements in the vector.  N must be at least one for the subroutine to have any visible effect.  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 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.

Y      - REAL             array of DIMENSION at least
( 1 + ( m - 1 )∗abs( INCY ) ). On entry, the incremented array Y must contain the vector y. On exit, Y is overwritten by the updated vector y.

INCY   - INTEGER. 
On entry, INCY specifies the increment for the elements of Y. INCY must not be zero. Unchanged on exit.
