SPPFA(3F)SPPFA(3F)NAMESPPFA - SPPFA factors a real symmetric positive definite matrix stored
in packed form.
SPPFA is usually called by SPPCO, but it can be called directly with a
saving in time if RCOND is not needed. (Time for SPPCO) = (1 +
18/N)*(Time for SPPFA) .
SYNOPSYS
SUBROUTINE SPPFA(AP,N,INFO)
DESCRIPTION
On Entry
AP REAL (N*(N+1)/2)
the packed form of a symmetric matrix A . The
columns of the upper triangle are stored sequentially
in a one-dimensional array of length N*(N+1)/2 .
See comments below for details.
N INTEGER
the order of the matrix A . On Return
AP an upper triangular matrix R , stored in packed
form, so that A = TRANS(R)*R .
INFO INTEGER
= 0 for normal return.
= K if the leading minor of order K is not
positive definite. Packed Storage The following program segment will
pack the upper triangle of a symmetric matrix.
K = 0
DO 20 J = 1, N
DO 10 I = 1, J
K = K + 1
AP(K) = A(I,J)
