PURPOSE

     ssycon estimates the reciprocal of the condition number  (in
     the  1-norm) of a real symmetric matrix A using the factori-
     zation A = U*D*U**T or A = L*D*L**T computed by SSYTRF.

     An estimate is obtained for norm(inv(A)), and the reciprocal
     of  the condition number is computed as RCOND = 1 / (ANORM *
     norm(inv(A))).

ARGUMENTS

     UPLO (input)
               Specifies whether the details of the factorization
               are stored as an upper or lower triangular matrix.
               = 'U':  Upper triangular, form is A = U*D*U**T;
               = 'L':  Lower triangular, form is A = L*D*L**T.

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

     A (input) The block diagonal matrix D  and  the  multipliers
               used  to  obtain  the factor U or L as computed by
               SSYTRF.

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

     IPIVOT (input)
               Details of the interchanges and the  block  struc-
               ture of D as determined by SSYTRF.

     ANORM (input)
               The 1-norm of the original matrix A.

     RCOND (output)
               The reciprocal of  the  condition  number  of  the
               matrix  A, computed as RCOND = 1/(ANORM * AINVNM),
               where AINVNM is  an  estimate  of  the  1-norm  of
               inv(A) computed in this routine.

     WORK (workspace)
               dimension(2*N)

     IWORK2 (workspace)

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