## NAME

## SYNOPSIS

### Functions/Subroutines

real function **sroundup\_lwork** (lwork)\
 **SROUNDUP\_LWORK**

## Function/Subroutine Documentation

### real function sroundup\_lwork (integer lwork)

**SROUNDUP\_LWORK**

**Purpose:**

```
!>
!> SROUNDUP_LWORK deals with a subtle bug with returning LWORK as a Float.
!> This routine guarantees it is rounded up instead of down by
!> multiplying LWORK by 1+eps when it is necessary, where eps is the relative machine precision.
!> E.g.,
!>
!>        float( 16777217            ) == 16777216
!>        float( 16777217 ) * (1.+eps) == 16777218
!>
!> \return SROUNDUP_LWORK
!> \verbatim
!>         SROUNDUP_LWORK >= LWORK.
!>         SROUNDUP_LWORK is guaranteed to have zero decimal part.
!>
```

**Parameters**

*LWORK* Workspace size.
