 **DTRCON**

## Function/Subroutine Documentation

### subroutine dtrcon (character norm, character uplo, character diag, integer n, double precision, dimension( lda, \* ) a, integer lda, double precision rcond, double precision, dimension( \* ) work, integer, dimension( \* ) iwork, integer info)

**DTRCON**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> DTRCON estimates the reciprocal of the condition number of a
!> triangular matrix A, in either the 1-norm or the infinity-norm.
!>
!> The norm of A is computed and an estimate is obtained for
!> norm(inv(A)), then the reciprocal of the condition number is
!> computed as
!>    RCOND = 1 / ( norm(A) * norm(inv(A)) ).
!>
```

**Parameters**

*NORM*

```
!>          NORM is CHARACTER*1
!>          Specifies whether the 1-norm condition number or the
!>          infinity-norm condition number is required:
!>          = '1' or 'O':  1-norm;
!>          = 'I':         Infinity-norm.
!>
```

*UPLO*

```
!>          UPLO is CHARACTER*1
!>          = 'U':  A is upper triangular;
!>          = 'L':  A is lower triangular.
!>
```

*DIAG*

```
!>          DIAG is CHARACTER*1
!>          = 'N':  A is non-unit triangular;
!>          = 'U':  A is unit triangular.
!>
```

*N*

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

*A*

```
!>          A is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)
!>          The triangular matrix A.  If UPLO = 'U', the leading N-by-N
!>          upper triangular part of the array A contains the upper
!>          triangular matrix, and the strictly lower triangular part of
!>          A is not referenced.  If UPLO = 'L', the leading N-by-N lower
!>          triangular part of the array A contains the lower triangular
!>          matrix, and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not
!>          referenced.  If DIAG = 'U', the diagonal elements of A are
!>          also not referenced and are assumed to be 1.
!>
```

*LDA*

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

*RCOND*

```
!>          RCOND is DOUBLE PRECISION
!>          The reciprocal of the condition number of the matrix A,
!>          computed as RCOND = 1/(norm(A) * norm(inv(A))).
!>
```

*WORK*

```
!>          WORK is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (3*N)
!>
```

*IWORK*

```
!>          IWORK is INTEGER array, dimension (N)
!>
```

*INFO*

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