           DPPTRF

Function/Subroutine Documentation

   subroutine dpptrf (characterUPLO, integerN, double precision, dimension( * )AP, integerINFO)
       DPPTRF

       Purpose:

            DPPTRF computes the Cholesky factorization of a real symmetric
            positive definite matrix A stored in packed format.

            The factorization has the form
               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 lower triangular.

       Parameters:
           UPLO

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

           N

                     N is INTEGER
                     The order of the matrix A.  N >= 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.  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.

                     On exit, if INFO = 0, 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.

           INFO

                     INFO is INTEGER
                     = 0:  successful exit
                     < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
                     > 0:  if INFO = i, the leading minor of order i is not
                           positive definite, and the factorization could not be
                           completed.

       Further Details:

             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 = aji)
                            a44

             Packed storage of the upper triangle of A:

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