SYNOPSIS
   Functions/Subroutines
       subroutine dposv (UPLO, N, NRHS, A, LDA, B, LDB, INFO)
	    DPOSV computes the solution to system of linear equations A * X = B for PO matrices

Function/Subroutine Documentation
   subroutine dposv (characterUPLO, integerN, integerNRHS, double precision, dimension( lda, * )A, integerLDA, double precision, dimension( ldb, *
       )B, integerLDB, integerINFO)
	DPOSV computes the solution to system of linear equations A * X = B for PO matrices

       Purpose:

	    DPOSV computes the solution to a real system of linear equations
	       A * X = B,
	    where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite matrix and X and B
	    are N-by-NRHS matrices.

	    The Cholesky decomposition is used to factor A as
	       A = U**T* U,  if UPLO = 'U', or
	       A = L * L**T,  if UPLO = 'L',
	    where U is an upper triangular matrix and L is a lower triangular
	    matrix.  The factored form of A is then used to solve the system of
	    equations A * X = B.

       Parameters:
	   UPLO

		     UPLO is CHARACTER*1
		     = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
		     = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.

	   N

		     N is INTEGER
		     The number of linear equations, i.e., the order of the
		     matrix A.	N >= 0.

	   NRHS

		     NRHS is INTEGER
		     The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns
		     of the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.

	   A

		     A is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)
		     On entry, the symmetric matrix A.	If UPLO = 'U', the leading
		     N-by-N upper triangular part of A contains the upper
		     triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower
		     triangular part of A is not referenced.  If UPLO = 'L', the
		     leading N-by-N lower triangular part of A contains the lower
		     triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly upper
		     triangular part of A is not referenced.

		     On exit, if INFO = 0, the factor U or L from the Cholesky
		     factorization A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T.

	   LDA

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

	   B

		     B is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
		     On entry, the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B.
		     On exit, if INFO = 0, the N-by-NRHS 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
		     > 0:  if INFO = i, the leading minor of order i of A is not
			   positive definite, so the factorization could not be
			   completed, and the solution has not been computed.
