DSYCON estimates the reciprocal of the condition number (in the


 1-norm) of a real symmetric matrix A using the factorization


 A = U*D*U**T or A = L*D*L**T computed by DSYTRF.


 An estimate is obtained for norm(inv(A)), and the reciprocal of the


 condition number is computed as RCOND = 1 / (ANORM * norm(inv(A))).

UPLO

          UPLO is CHARACTER*1


          Specifies whether the details of the factorization are stored


          as an upper or lower triangular matrix.


          = 'U':  Upper triangular, form is A = U*D*U**T;


          = 'L':  Lower triangular, form is A = L*D*L**T.

N

          N is INTEGER


          The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

A

          A is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)


          The block diagonal matrix D and the multipliers used to


          obtain the factor U or L as computed by DSYTRF.

LDA

          LDA is INTEGER


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

IPIV

          IPIV is INTEGER array, dimension (N)


          Details of the interchanges and the block structure of D


          as determined by DSYTRF.

ANORM

          ANORM is DOUBLE PRECISION


          The 1-norm of the original matrix A.

RCOND

          RCOND is DOUBLE PRECISION


          The reciprocal of the condition number of the matrix A,


          computed as RCOND = 1/(ANORM * AINVNM), where AINVNM is an


          estimate of the 1-norm of inv(A) computed in this routine.

WORK

          WORK is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (2*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
