DLANSF(1LAPACK routine (version 3.2)DLANSF(1)NAME
DLANSF - returns the value of the one norm, or the Frobenius norm, or
the infinity norm, or the element of largest absolute value of a real
symmetric matrix A in RFP format
SYNOPSIS
DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION DLANSF( NORM, TRANSR, UPLO, N, A, WORK )
CHARACTER NORM, TRANSR, UPLO
INTEGER N
DOUBLE PRECISION A( 0: * ), WORK( 0: * )
PURPOSE
DLANSF returns the value of the one norm, or the Frobenius norm, or the
infinity norm, or the element of largest absolute value of a real sym‐
metric matrix A in RFP format.
DESCRIPTION
DLANSF returns the value
DLANSF = ( max(abs(A(i,j))), NORM = 'M' or 'm'
(
( norm1(A), NORM = '1', 'O' or 'o'
(
( normI(A), NORM = 'I' or 'i'
(
( normF(A), NORM = 'F', 'f', 'E' or 'e' where
norm1 denotes the one norm of a matrix (maximum column sum), normI
denotes the infinity norm of a matrix (maximum row sum) and normF
denotes the Frobenius norm of a matrix (square root of sum of
squares). Note that max(abs(A(i,j))) is not a matrix norm.
ARGUMENTS
NORM (input) CHARACTER
Specifies the value to be returned in DLANSF as described
above.
TRANSR (input) CHARACTER
Specifies whether the RFP format of A is normal or transposed
format. = 'N': RFP format is Normal;
= 'T': RFP format is Transpose.
UPLO (input) CHARACTER
On entry, UPLO specifies whether the RFP matrix A came from an
upper or lower triangular matrix as follows:
= 'U': RFP A came from an upper triangular matrix;
= 'L': RFP A came from a lower triangular matrix.
N (input) INTEGER
The order of the matrix A. N >= 0. When N = 0, DLANSF is set to
zero.
A (input) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension ( N*(N+1)/2 );
On entry, the upper (if UPLO = 'U') or lower (if UPLO = 'L')
part of the symmetric matrix A stored in RFP format. See the
"Notes" below for more details. Unchanged on exit.
WORK (workspace) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (MAX(1,LWORK)),
where LWORK >= N when NORM = 'I' or '1' or 'O'; otherwise, WORK
is not referenced.
FURTHER DETAILS
We first consider Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) Format when N is even.
We give an example where N = 6.
AP is Upper AP is Lower

44 45 40 41 42 43 44
55 50 51 52 53 54 55
Let TRANSR = 'N'. RFP holds AP as follows:
For UPLO = 'U' the upper trapezoid A(0:5,0:2) consists of the last
three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(4:6,0:2) consists of
the transpose of the first three columns of AP upper.
For UPLO = 'L' the lower trapezoid A(1:6,0:2) consists of the first
three columns of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:2,0:2) consists of
the transpose of the last three columns of AP lower.
This covers the case N even and TRANSR = 'N'.

01 11 55 40 41 42
02 12 22 50 51 52
Now let TRANSR = 'T'. RFP A in both UPLO cases is just the transpose of
RFP A above. One therefore gets:
RFP A RFP A
03 13 23 33 00 01 02 33 00 10 20 30 40 50

We first consider Rectangular Full Packed (RFP) Format when N is odd.
We give an example where N = 5.

Let TRANSR = 'N'. RFP holds AP as follows:
For UPLO = 'U' the upper trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the last
three columns of AP upper. The lower triangle A(3:4,0:1) consists of
the transpose of the first two columns of AP upper.
For UPLO = 'L' the lower trapezoid A(0:4,0:2) consists of the first
three columns of AP lower. The upper triangle A(0:1,1:2) consists of
the transpose of the last two columns of AP lower.
This covers the case N odd and TRANSR = 'N'.
