PURPOSE

dtprfs provides error bounds and backward error estimates for the solution to a system of linear equations with a triangular packed coefficient matrix.

The solution matrix X must be computed by STPTRS or some other means before entering this routine. STPRFS does not do iterative refinement because doing so cannot improve the backward error.


ARGUMENTS

* UPLO (input)
* TRANSA (input)
Specifies the form of the system of equations:

* DIAG (input)

* N (input)
The order of the matrix A. N >= 0.

* NRHS (input)
The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of the matrices B and X. NRHS >= 0.

* A (input)
The upper or lower triangular matrix A, packed columnwise in a linear array. The j-th column of A is stored in the array A as follows: if UPLO = 'U', A(i + (j-1)*j/2) = A(i,j) for 1<=i<=j; if UPLO = 'L', A(i + (j-1)*(2*n-j)/2) = A(i,j) for j<=i<=n. If DIAG = 'U', the diagonal elements of A are not referenced and are assumed to be 1.

* B (input)
The right hand side matrix B.

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

* X (input)
The solution matrix X.

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

* FERR (output)
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 (output)
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 (workspace)
dimension(3*N)

* WORK2 (workspace)
* INFO (output)
