## NAME

SRC/ssyconvf\_rook.f

## SYNOPSIS

### Functions/Subroutines

subroutine **ssyconvf\_rook** (uplo, way, n, a, lda, e, ipiv, info)\
 **SSYCONVF\_ROOK**

## Function/Subroutine Documentation

### subroutine ssyconvf\_rook (character uplo, character way, integer n, real, dimension( lda, \* ) a, integer lda, real, dimension( \* ) e, integer, dimension( \* ) ipiv, integer info)

**SSYCONVF\_ROOK**

**Purpose:**

```
!> If parameter WAY = 'C':
!> SSYCONVF_ROOK converts the factorization output format used in
!> SSYTRF_ROOK provided on entry in parameter A into the factorization
!> output format used in SSYTRF_RK (or SSYTRF_BK) that is stored
!> on exit in parameters A and E. IPIV format for SSYTRF_ROOK and
!> SSYTRF_RK (or SSYTRF_BK) is the same and is not converted.
!>
!> If parameter WAY = 'R':
!> SSYCONVF_ROOK performs the conversion in reverse direction, i.e.
!> converts the factorization output format used in SSYTRF_RK
!> (or SSYTRF_BK) provided on entry in parameters A and E into
!> the factorization output format used in SSYTRF_ROOK that is stored
!> on exit in parameter A. IPIV format for SSYTRF_ROOK and
!> SSYTRF_RK (or SSYTRF_BK) is the same and is not converted.
