        DPPSVX computes the solution to system of linear equations A * X = B for OTHER matrices

       Purpose:

            DPPSVX uses the Cholesky factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T to
            compute the solution to a real system of linear equations
               A * X = B,
            where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite matrix stored in
            packed format and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.

            Error bounds on the solution and a condition estimate are also
            provided.

       Description:

            The following steps are performed:

            1. If FACT = 'E', real scaling factors are computed to equilibrate
               the system:
                  diag(S) * A * diag(S) * inv(diag(S)) * X = diag(S) * B
               Whether or not the system will be equilibrated depends on the
               scaling of the matrix A, but if equilibration is used, A is
               overwritten by diag(S)*A*diag(S) and B by diag(S)*B.

            2. If FACT = 'N' or 'E', the Cholesky decomposition is used to
               factor the matrix A (after equilibration if FACT = 'E') as
                  A = U**T* U,  if UPLO = 'U', or
                  A = L * L**T,  if UPLO = 'L',
               where U is an upper triangular matrix and L is a lower triangular
               matrix.

            3. If the leading i-by-i principal minor is not positive definite,
               then the routine returns with INFO = i. Otherwise, the factored
               form of A is used to estimate the condition number of the matrix
               A.  If the reciprocal of the condition number is less than machine
               precision, INFO = N+1 is returned as a warning, but the routine
               still goes on to solve for X and compute error bounds as
               described below.

            4. The system of equations is solved for X using the factored form
               of A.

            5. Iterative refinement is applied to improve the computed solution
               matrix and calculate error bounds and backward error estimates
               for it.

            6. If equilibration was used, the matrix X is premultiplied by
               diag(S) so that it solves the original system before
               equilibration.

       Parameters:
           FACT

                     FACT is CHARACTER*1
                     Specifies whether or not the factored form of the matrix A is
                     supplied on entry, and if not, whether the matrix A should be
                     equilibrated before it is factored.
                     = 'F':  On entry, AFP contains the factored form of A.
                             If EQUED = 'Y', the matrix A has been equilibrated
                             with scaling factors given by S.  AP and AFP will not
                             be modified.
                     = 'N':  The matrix A will be copied to AFP and factored.
                     = 'E':  The matrix A will be equilibrated if necessary, then
                             copied to AFP and factored.

           UPLO

                     UPLO is CHARACTER*1
                     = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
                     = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.

           N

                     N is INTEGER
                     The number of linear equations, i.e., the order of the
                     matrix A.  N >= 0.

           NRHS

                     NRHS is INTEGER
                     The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns
                     of the matrices B and X.  NRHS >= 0.

           AP

                     AP is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
                     On entry, the upper or lower triangle of the symmetric matrix
                     A, packed columnwise in a linear array, except if FACT = 'F'
                     and EQUED = 'Y', then A must contain the equilibrated matrix
                     diag(S)*A*diag(S).  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.
                     See below for further details.  A is not modified if
                     FACT = 'F' or 'N', or if FACT = 'E' and EQUED = 'N' on exit.

                     On exit, if FACT = 'E' and EQUED = 'Y', A is overwritten by
                     diag(S)*A*diag(S).

           AFP

                     AFP is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension
                                       (N*(N+1)/2)
                     If FACT = 'F', then AFP is an input argument and on entry
                     contains the triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky
                     factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T, in the same storage
                     format as A.  If EQUED .ne. 'N', then AFP is the factored
                     form of the equilibrated matrix A.

                     If FACT = 'N', then AFP is an output argument and on exit
                     returns the triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky
                     factorization A = U**T * U or A = L * L**T of the original
                     matrix A.

                     If FACT = 'E', then AFP is an output argument and on exit
                     returns the triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky
                     factorization A = U**T * U or A = L * L**T of the equilibrated
                     matrix A (see the description of AP for the form of the
                     equilibrated matrix).

           EQUED

                     EQUED is CHARACTER*1
                     Specifies the form of equilibration that was done.
                     = 'N':  No equilibration (always true if FACT = 'N').
                     = 'Y':  Equilibration was done, i.e., A has been replaced by
                             diag(S) * A * diag(S).
                     EQUED is an input argument if FACT = 'F'; otherwise, it is an
                     output argument.

           S

                     S is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N)
                     The scale factors for A; not accessed if EQUED = 'N'.  S is
                     an input argument if FACT = 'F'; otherwise, S is an output
                     argument.  If FACT = 'F' and EQUED = 'Y', each element of S
                     must be positive.

           B

                     B is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
                     On entry, the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B.
                     On exit, if EQUED = 'N', B is not modified; if EQUED = 'Y',
                     B is overwritten by diag(S) * B.

           LDB

                     LDB is INTEGER
                     The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).

           X

                     X is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDX,NRHS)
                     If INFO = 0 or INFO = N+1, the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X to
                     the original system of equations.  Note that if EQUED = 'Y',
                     A and B are modified on exit, and the solution to the
                     equilibrated system is inv(diag(S))*X.

           LDX

                     LDX is INTEGER
                     The leading dimension of the array X.  LDX >= max(1,N).

           RCOND

                     RCOND is DOUBLE PRECISION
                     The estimate of the reciprocal condition number of the matrix
                     A after equilibration (if done).  If RCOND is less than the
                     machine precision (in particular, if RCOND = 0), the matrix
                     is singular to working precision.  This condition is
                     indicated by a return code of INFO > 0.

           FERR

                     FERR is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (NRHS)
                     The estimated forward error bound for each solution vector
                     X(j) (the j-th column of the solution matrix X).
                     If XTRUE is the true solution corresponding to X(j), FERR(j)
                     is an estimated upper bound for the magnitude of the largest
                     element in (X(j) - XTRUE) divided by the magnitude of the
                     largest element in X(j).  The estimate is as reliable as
                     the estimate for RCOND, and is almost always a slight
                     overestimate of the true error.

           BERR

                     BERR is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (NRHS)
                     The componentwise relative backward error of each solution
                     vector X(j) (i.e., the smallest relative change in
                     any element of A or B that makes X(j) an exact solution).

           WORK

                     WORK is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (3*N)

           IWORK

                     IWORK is INTEGER array, dimension (N)

           INFO

                     INFO is INTEGER
                     = 0:  successful exit
                     < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
                     > 0:  if INFO = i, and i is
                           <= N:  the leading minor of order i of A is
                                  not positive definite, so the factorization
                                  could not be completed, and the solution has not
                                  been computed. RCOND = 0 is returned.
                           = N+1: U is nonsingular, but RCOND is less than machine
                                  precision, meaning that the matrix is singular
                                  to working precision.  Nevertheless, the
                                  solution and error bounds are computed because
                                  there are a number of situations where the
                                  computed solution can be more accurate than the
                                  value of RCOND would suggest.

             The packed storage scheme is illustrated by the following example
             when N = 4, UPLO = 'U':

             Two-dimensional storage of the symmetric matrix A:

                a11 a12 a13 a14
                    a22 a23 a24
                        a33 a34     (aij = conjg(aji))
                            a44

             Packed storage of the upper triangle of A:

             AP = [ a11, a12, a22, a13, a23, a33, a14, a24, a34, a44 ]
