NAME
dlarrr.f - SYNOPSIS
Functions/Subroutines subroutine dlarrr (N, D, E, INFO) DLARRR performs tests to decide whether the symmetric tridiagonal matrix T warrants expensive computations which guarantee high relative accuracy in the eigenvalues. Function/Subroutine Documentation subroutine dlarrr (integerN, double precision, dimension( * )D, double precision, dimension( * )E, integerINFO) DLARRR performs tests to decide whether the symmetric tridiagonal matrix T warrants expensive computations which guarantee high relative accuracy in the eigenvalues. Purpose: Perform tests to decide whether the symmetric tridiagonal matrix T warrants expensive computations which guarantee high relative accuracy in the eigenvalues. Parameters: N N is INTEGER The order of the matrix. N > 0. D D is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N) The N diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T. E E is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (N) On entry, the first (N-1) entries contain the subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T; E(N) is set to ZERO. INFO INFO is INTEGER INFO = 0(default) : the matrix warrants computations preserving relative accuracy. INFO = 1 : the matrix warrants computations guaranteeing only absolute accuracy.
