STRCON 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)) ).

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 REAL 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 REAL


          The reciprocal of the condition number of the matrix A,


          computed as RCOND = 1/(norm(A) * norm(inv(A))).

WORK

          WORK is REAL 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
