Description

The STRMM, DTRMM, CTRMM, or ZTRMM subroutine performs one of the matrix-matrix operations:

B := alpha * op( A ) * B

B := alpha * B * op( A )

where alpha is a scalar, B is an M by N matrix, A is a unit, or non-unit, upper or lower triangular matrix, and op( A ) is either op( A ) = A or op( A ) = A'.

Parameters

SIDE

On entry, SIDE specifies whether op( A ) multiplies B from the left or right as follows:

SIDE = 'L' or 'l'	B := alpha * op( A ) * B
SIDE = 'R' or 'r'	B := alpha * B * op( A )

Unchanged on exit.

UPLO

On entry, UPLO specifies whether the matrix A is an upper or lower triangular matrix as follows:

UPLO = 'U' or 'u'	A is an upper triangular matrix.
UPLO = 'L' or 'l'	A is a lower triangular matrix.

Unchanged on exit.

TRANSA

On entry, TRANSA specifies the form of op( A ) to be used in the matrix multiplication as follows:

TRANSA = 'N' or 'n'	op( A ) = A
TRANSA = 'T' or 't'	op( A ) = A'
TRANSA = 'C' or 'c'	op( A ) = A'

Unchanged on exit.

DIAG

On entry, DIAG specifies whether or not A is unit triangular as follows:

DIAG = 'U' or 'u'	A is assumed to be unit triangular.
DIAG = 'N' or 'n'	A is not assumed to be unit triangular.

Unchanged on exit.

On entry, M specifies the number of rows of B; M must be at least 0; unchanged on exit.

On entry, N specifies the number of columns of B; N must be at least 0; unchanged on exit.

ALPHA

On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha. When alpha is 0 then A is not referenced and B need not be set before entry; unchanged on exit.

An array of dimension ( LDA, k ), where k is M when SIDE = 'L' or 'l' and is N when SIDE = 'R' or 'r'; on entry with UPLO = 'U' or 'u', the leading k by k upper triangular part of the array A must contain the upper triangular matrix and the strictly lower triangular part of A is not referenced; on entry with UPLO = 'L' or 'l', the leading k by k lower triangular part of the array A must contain the lower triangular matrix and the strictly upper triangular part of A is not referenced. When DIAG = 'U' or 'u', the diagonal elements of A are not referenced either, but are assumed to be unity; unchanged on exit.

LDA

On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared in the calling (sub) program. When SIDE = 'L' or 'l' then LDA must be at least max( 1, M ), when SIDE = 'R' or 'r' then LDA must be at least max( 1, N ); unchanged on exit.

An array of dimension ( LDB, N ); on entry, the leading M by N part of the array B must contain the matrix B, and on exit is overwritten by the transformed matrix.

LDB

On entry, LDB specifies the first dimension of B as declared in the calling (sub) program; LDB must be at least max( 1, M ); unchanged on exit.
