PURPOSE

     ztprfs provides error bounds and  backward  error  estimates
     for the solution to a system of linear equations with a tri-
     angular packed coefficient matrix.

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

ARGUMENTS

     UPLO (input)
               = 'U':  A is upper triangular;
               = 'L':  A is lower triangular.

     TRANSA (input)
               Specifies the form of the system of equations:
               = 'N':  A * X = B     (No transpose)
               = 'T':  A**T * X = B  (Transpose)
               = 'C':  A**H * X = B  (Conjugate transpose)

               TRANSA is defaulted to 'N' for F95 INTERFACE.

     DIAG (input)
               = 'N':  A is non-unit triangular;
               = 'U':  A is unit triangular.

     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) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
               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)*(2n-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) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
               The right hand side matrix B.

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

     X (input) COMPLEX*16 array, dimension (LDX,NRHS)
               The solution matrix X.

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

     FERR (output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (NRHS)
               The estimated forward error bound for  each  solu-
               tion  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  ele-
               ment 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) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (NRHS)
               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)
               COMPLEX*16 array, dimension(2*N)

     WORK2 (workspace)
               DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension(N)

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