Description

The STPSV, DTPSV, DTPSV, or ZTPSV subroutine solves one of the systems of equations:

A * x = b

A' * x = b

where b and x are N element vectors and A is an N by N unit, or non-unit, upper or lower triangular matrix, supplied in packed form.

Parameters

UPLO	On entry, UPLO specifies whether the matrix is an upper or lower triangular matrix as follows: UPLO = 'U' or 'u' A is an upper triangular matrix. UPLO = 'L' or 'l' A is a lower triangular matrix. Unchanged on exit.
TRANS	On entry, TRANS specifies the equations to be solved as follows: TRANS = 'N' or 'n' A * x = b TRANS = 'T' or 't' A' * x = b TRANS = 'C' or 'c' A' * x = b Unchanged on exit.
DIAG	On entry, DIAG specifies whether or not A is unit triangular as follows: DIAG = 'U' or 'u' A is assumed to be unit triangular. DIAG = 'N' or 'n' A is not assumed to be unit triangular. Unchanged on exit.
N	On entry, N specifies the order of the matrix A; N must be at least 0; unchanged on exit.
AP	A vector of dimension at least ( ( N * (N+1) )/2 ); on entry with UPLO = 'U' or 'u', the array AP must contain the upper triangular matrix packed sequentially, column by column, so that AP(1) contains A(1,1), AP(2) and AP(3) contain A(1,2) and A(2,2) respectively, and so on. Before entry with UPLO = 'L' or 'l', the array AP must contain the lower triangular matrix packed sequentially, column by column, so that AP(1) contains A(1,1), AP(2) and AP(3) contain A(2,1) and A(3,1) respectively, and so on. When DIAG = 'U' or 'u', the diagonal elements of A are not referenced, but are assumed to be unity; unchanged on exit.
X	A vector of dimension at least (1 + (N-1) * abs(INCX) ); on entry, the incremented array X must contain the N element right-hand side vector b; on exit, X is overwritten with the solution vector x.
INCX	On entry, INCX specifies the increment for the elements of X; INCX must not be 0; unchanged on exit.

Implementation Specifics

No test for singularity or near-singularity is included in this routine. Such tests must be performed before calling this routine.
