# dpotrs.f(3)

## NAME

SRC/dpotrs.f

## SYNOPSIS

### Functions/Subroutines

subroutine **dpotrs** (uplo, n, nrhs, a, lda, b, ldb, info)\
 **DPOTRS**

## Function/Subroutine Documentation

### subroutine dpotrs (character uplo, integer n, integer nrhs, double precision, dimension( lda, \* ) a, integer lda, double precision, dimension( ldb, \* ) b, integer ldb, integer info)

**DPOTRS**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> DPOTRS solves a system of linear equations A*X = B with a symmetric
!> positive definite matrix A using the Cholesky factorization
!> A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T computed by DPOTRF.
!>
```

**Parameters**

*UPLO*

```
!>          UPLO is CHARACTER*1
!>          = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
!>          = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.
!>
```

*N*

```
!>          N is INTEGER
!>          The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.
!>
```

*NRHS*

```
!>          NRHS is INTEGER
!>          The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns
!>          of the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.
!>
```

*A*

```
!>          A is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)
!>          The triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization
!>          A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T, as computed by DPOTRF.
!>
```

*LDA*

```
!>          LDA is INTEGER
!>          The leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max(1,N).
!>
```

*B*

```
!>          B is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
!>          On entry, the right hand side matrix B.
!>          On exit, the solution matrix X.
!>
```

*LDB*

```
!>          LDB is INTEGER
!>          The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).
!>
```

*INFO*

```
!>          INFO is INTEGER
!>          = 0:  successful exit
!>          < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
!>
```
