SPBTRS solves a system of linear equations A*X = B with a symmetric


 positive definite band matrix A using the Cholesky factorization


 A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T computed by SPBTRF.

UPLO

          UPLO is CHARACTER*1


          = 'U':  Upper triangular factor stored in AB;


          = 'L':  Lower triangular factor stored in AB.

N

          N is INTEGER


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

KD

          KD is INTEGER


          The number of superdiagonals of the matrix A if UPLO = 'U',


          or the number of subdiagonals if UPLO = 'L'.  KD >= 0.

NRHS

          NRHS is INTEGER


          The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns


          of the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.

AB

          AB is REAL array, dimension (LDAB,N)


          The triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization


          A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T of the band matrix A, stored in the


          first KD+1 rows of the array.  The j-th column of U or L is


          stored in the j-th column of the array AB as follows:


          if UPLO ='U', AB(kd+1+i-j,j) = U(i,j) for max(1,j-kd)<=i<=j;


          if UPLO ='L', AB(1+i-j,j)    = L(i,j) for j<=i<=min(n,j+kd).

LDAB

          LDAB is INTEGER


          The leading dimension of the array AB.  LDAB >= KD+1.

B

          B is REAL 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
