NAME
       CTPCON - estimate the reciprocal of the condition number of a packed triangular matrix A, in either the 1-norm or the infinity-norm

SYNOPSIS
       SUBROUTINE CTPCON( NORM, UPLO, DIAG, N, AP, RCOND, WORK, RWORK, INFO )

	   CHARACTER	  DIAG, NORM, UPLO

	   INTEGER	  INFO, N

	   REAL 	  RCOND

	   REAL 	  RWORK( * )

	   COMPLEX	  AP( * ), WORK( * )

PURPOSE
       CTPCON  estimates  the  reciprocal of the condition number of a packed 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)) ).

ARGUMENTS
       NORM    (input) 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    (input) CHARACTER*1
	       = 'U':  A is upper triangular;
	       = 'L':  A is lower triangular.

       DIAG    (input) CHARACTER*1
	       = 'N':  A is non-unit triangular;
	       = 'U':  A is unit triangular.

       N       (input) INTEGER
	       The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

       AP      (input) COMPLEX array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
	       The upper or lower triangular matrix A, packed columnwise in a linear array.  The j-th column of A is stored in	the  array  AP	as
	       follows:  if  UPLO  =  'U', AP(i + (j-1)*j/2) = A(i,j) for 1<=i<=j; if UPLO = 'L', AP(i + (j-1)*(2n-j)/2) = A(i,j) for j<=i<=n.	If
	       DIAG = 'U', the diagonal elements of A are not referenced and are assumed to be 1.

       RCOND   (output) REAL
	       The reciprocal of the condition number of the matrix A, computed as RCOND = 1/(norm(A) * norm(inv(A))).

       WORK    (workspace) COMPLEX array, dimension (2*N)

       RWORK   (workspace) REAL array, dimension (N)

       INFO    (output) INTEGER
	       = 0:  successful exit
	       < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
