PURPOSE

     sgeqrf computes a QR factorization of a real  M-by-N  matrix
     A:  A = Q * R.

ARGUMENTS

     M (input) The number of rows of the matrix A.  M >= 0.
     N (input) The number of columns of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

     A (input/output)
               On entry, the M-by-N matrix A.  On exit, the  ele-
               ments  on and above the diagonal of the array con-
               tain the min(M,N)-by-N upper trapezoidal matrix  R
               (R  is  upper  triangular if m >= n); the elements
               below the diagonal, with the array TAU,  represent
               the  orthogonal  matrix Q as a product of min(m,n)
               elementary reflectors (see Further Details).

     LDA (input)
               The leading dimension of  the  array  A.   LDA  >=
               max(1,M).

     TAU (output)
               The scalar factors of  the  elementary  reflectors
               (see Further Details).

     WORK (workspace)
               On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the  optimal
               LDWORK.

     LDWORK (input)
               The  dimension  of  the  array  WORK.   LDWORK  >=
               max(1,N).  For optimum performance LDWORK >= N*NB,
               where NB is the optimal blocksize.

               If LDWORK = -1, then a workspace query is assumed;
               the  routine  only  calculates the optimal size of
               the WORK array, returns this value  as  the  first
               entry  of  the  WORK  array,  and no error message
               related to LDWORK is issued by XERBLA.

     INFO (output)
               = 0:  successful exit
               < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an ille-
               gal value

FURTHER DETAILS

     The matrix Q is  represented  as  a  product  of  elementary
     reflectors

        Q = H(1) H(2) . . . H(k), where k = min(m,n).

     Each H(i) has the form
        H(i) = I - tau * v * v'

     where tau is a real scalar, and v is a real vector with
     v(1:i-1) = 0 and v(i) = 1; v(i+1:m) is  stored  on  exit  in
     A(i+1:m,i), and tau in TAU(i).
