PURPOSE

       PZTRCON  estimates  the  reciprocal  of  the  condition number of a triangular distributed
       matrix A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1), in either the 1-norm or the infinity-norm.

       The  norm  of  A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1)  is  computed  and  an  estimate  is  obtained   for
       norm(inv(A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1))), then the reciprocal of the condition number is computed
       as
                  RCOND = 1 / ( norm( A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1)      ) *
                                norm( inv(A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1)) ) ).

       Notes
       =====

       Each global data object is described by an associated  description  vector.   This  vector
       stores the information required to establish the mapping between an object element and its
       corresponding process and memory location.

       Let A be a generic term for any 2D block cyclicly distributed array.  Such a global  array
       has  an  associated  description vector DESCA.  In the following comments, the character _
       should be read as "of the global array".

       NOTATION        STORED IN      EXPLANATION
       ---------------  --------------   --------------------------------------   DTYPE_A(global)
       DESCA( DTYPE_ )The descriptor type.  In this case,
                                      DTYPE_A = 1.
       CTXT_A (global) DESCA( CTXT_ ) The BLACS context handle, indicating
                                      the BLACS process grid A is distribu-
                                      ted over. The context itself is glo-
                                      bal, but the handle (the integer
                                      value) may vary.
       M_A    (global) DESCA( M_ )    The number of rows in the global
                                      array A.
       N_A    (global) DESCA( N_ )    The number of columns in the global
                                      array A.
       MB_A   (global) DESCA( MB_ )   The blocking factor used to distribute
                                      the rows of the array.
       NB_A   (global) DESCA( NB_ )   The blocking factor used to distribute
                                      the columns of the array.
       RSRC_A (global) DESCA( RSRC_ ) The process row over which the first
                                      row  of the array A is distributed.  CSRC_A (global) DESCA(
       CSRC_ ) The process column over which the
                                      first column of the array A is
                                      distributed.
       LLD_A  (local)  DESCA( LLD_ )  The leading dimension of the local
                                      array.  LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(M_A)).

       Let K be the number of rows or columns of  a  distributed  matrix,  and  assume  that  its
       process grid has dimension p x q.
       LOCr(  K  )  denotes  the  number  of elements of K that a process would receive if K were
       distributed over the p processes of its process column.
       Similarly, LOCc( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process would receive if K
       were distributed over the q processes of its process row.
       The  values  of  LOCr()  and  LOCc()  may  be  determined via a call to the ScaLAPACK tool
       function, NUMROC:
               LOCr( M ) = NUMROC( M, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ),
               LOCc( N ) = NUMROC( N, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ).  An  upper  bound  for  these
       quantities may be computed by:
               LOCr( M ) <= ceil( ceil(M/MB_A)/NPROW )*MB_A
               LOCc( N ) <= ceil( ceil(N/NB_A)/NPCOL )*NB_A

ARGUMENTS

       NORM    (global input) CHARACTER
               Specifies  whether  the  1-norm  condition  number  or the infinity-norm condition
               number is required:
               = '1' or 'O':  1-norm;
               = 'I':         Infinity-norm.

       UPLO    (global input) CHARACTER
               = 'U':  A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1) is upper triangular;
               = 'L':  A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1) is lower triangular.

       DIAG    (global input) CHARACTER
               = 'N':  A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1) is non-unit triangular;
               = 'U':  A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1) is unit triangular.

       N       (global input) INTEGER
               The order of the distributed matrix A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1).  N >= 0.

       A       (local input) COMPLEX*16 pointer into the local memory
               to an array of dimension ( LLD_A, LOCc(JA+N-1) ). This array  contains  the  local
               pieces of the triangular distributed matrix A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1). If UPLO = 'U',
               the leading N-by-N upper triangular part of this distributed matrix con- tains the
               upper triangular matrix, and its strictly lower triangular part is not referenced.
               If UPLO = 'L', the leading N-by-N lower triangular part of this ditributed  matrix
               contains  the  lower  triangular matrix, and the strictly upper triangular part is
               not referenced. If DIAG = 'U', the diagonal elements of A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1) are
               also not referenced and are assumed to be 1.

       IA      (global input) INTEGER
               The row index in the global array A indicating the first row of sub( A ).

       JA      (global input) INTEGER
               The column index in the global array A indicating the first column of sub( A ).

       DESCA   (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_.
               The array descriptor for the distributed matrix A.

       RCOND   (global output) DOUBLE PRECISION
               The   reciprocal   of   the   condition   number   of   the   distributed   matrix
               A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1), computed as
               RCOND = 1 / ( norm( A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1)      ) *
               norm( inv(A(IA:IA+N-1,JA:JA+N-1)) ) ).

       WORK    (local workspace/local output) COMPLEX*16 array,
               dimension (LWORK) On exit, WORK(1) returns the minimal and optimal LWORK.

       LWORK   (local or global input) INTEGER
               The dimension of the array WORK.  LWORK is local input and must be at least  LWORK
               >=  2*LOCr(N+MOD(IA-1,MB_A)) + MAX( 2, MAX(NB_A*CEIL(P-1,Q),LOCc(N+MOD(JA-1,NB_A))
               + NB_A*CEIL(Q-1,P)) ).

               If LWORK = -1, then LWORK is global input and a workspace query  is  assumed;  the
               routine  only calculates the minimum and optimal size for all work arrays. Each of
               these values is returned in the first entry of the corresponding work  array,  and
               no error message is issued by PXERBLA.

       RWORK   (local workspace/local output) DOUBLE PRECISION array,
               dimension (LRWORK) On exit, RWORK(1) returns the minimal and optimal LRWORK.

       LRWORK  (local or global input) INTEGER
               The  dimension  of  the  array  RWORK.  LRWORK is local input and must be at least
               LRWORK >= LOCc(N+MOD(JA-1,NB_A)).

               If LRWORK = -1, then LRWORK is global input and a workspace query is assumed;  the
               routine  only calculates the minimum and optimal size for all work arrays. Each of
               these values is returned in the first entry of the corresponding work  array,  and
               no error message is issued by PXERBLA.

       INFO    (global output) INTEGER
               = 0:  successful exit
               <  0:  If the i-th argument is an array and the j-entry had an illegal value, then
               INFO = -(i*100+j), if the i-th argument is a scalar and had an illegal value, then
               INFO = -i.
