     dscal - Compute y := alpha * y

SYNOPSIS

     SUBROUTINE DSCAL(N, ALPHA, Y, INCY)

     INTEGER N, INCY
     DOUBLE PRECISION ALPHA
     DOUBLE PRECISION Y(*)

     SUBROUTINE DSCAL_64(N, ALPHA, Y, INCY)

     INTEGER*8 N, INCY
     DOUBLE PRECISION ALPHA
     DOUBLE PRECISION Y(*)

  F95 INTERFACE
     SUBROUTINE SCAL([N], ALPHA, Y, [INCY])

     INTEGER :: N, INCY
     REAL(8) :: ALPHA
     REAL(8), DIMENSION(:) :: Y

     SUBROUTINE SCAL_64([N], ALPHA, Y, [INCY])

     INTEGER(8) :: N, INCY
     REAL(8) :: ALPHA
     REAL(8), DIMENSION(:) :: Y

  C INTERFACE
     #include <sunperf.h>

     void dscal(int n, double alpha, double *y, int incy);

     void dscal_64(long n, double alpha, double *y, long incy);

PURPOSE

     dscal Compute y := alpha * y where alpha is a scalar  and  y
     is an n-vector.

ARGUMENTS

     N (input)
               On entry, N specifies the number  of  elements  in
               the  vector.   N  must  be  at  least  one for the
               subroutine to have any visible effect.   Unchanged
               on exit.

     ALPHA (input)
               On  entry,  ALPHA  specifies  the  scalar   alpha.
               Unchanged on exit.

     Y (input/output)
               ( 1 + ( n - 1 )*INCY ).  On entry, the incremented
               array  Y  must contain the vector y. On exit, Y is
               overwritten by the updated vector y.

     INCY (input)
               On entry, INCY specifies  the  increment  for  the
               elements of Y. This routine returns immediately if
               INCY is less than or equal to zero.  Unchanged  on
               exit.
