PURPOSE

28       CLALSD  uses  the  singular value decomposition of A to solve the least
29       squares problem of finding X to minimize the  Euclidean  norm  of  each
30       column of A*X-B, where A is N-by-N upper bidiagonal, and X and B are N-
31       by-NRHS. The solution X overwrites B.  The singular values of A smaller
32       than  RCOND  times  the  largest  singular value are treated as zero in
33       solving the least squares problem; in this case a minimum norm solution
34       is returned.  The actual singular values are returned in D in ascending
35       order.  This code makes very  mild  assumptions  about  floating  point
36       arithmetic.  It  will  work  on machines with a guard digit in add/sub‐
37       tract, or on those binary machines without guard digits which  subtract
38       like  the  Cray XMP, Cray YMP, Cray C 90, or Cray 2.  It could conceiv‐
39       ably fail on hexadecimal or decimal machines without guard digits,  but
40       we know of none.

ARGUMENTS

43       UPLO   (input) CHARACTER*1
44              = 'U': D and E define an upper bidiagonal matrix.
45              =  'L':  D  and  E  define  a   lower bidiagonal matrix.  SMLSIZ
46              (input) INTEGER The maximum size of the subproblems at the  bot‐
47              tom of the computation tree.
48
49       N      (input) INTEGER
50              The dimension of the  bidiagonal matrix.  N >= 0.
51
52       NRHS   (input) INTEGER
53              The number of columns of B. NRHS must be at least 1.
54
55       D      (input/output) REAL array, dimension (N)
56              On  entry D contains the main diagonal of the bidiagonal matrix.
57              On exit, if INFO = 0, D contains its singular values.
58
59       E      (input/output) REAL array, dimension (N-1)
60              Contains the super-diagonal entries of  the  bidiagonal  matrix.
61              On exit, E has been destroyed.
62
63       B      (input/output) COMPLEX array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
64              On  input,  B contains the right hand sides of the least squares
65              problem. On output, B contains the solution X.
66
67       LDB    (input) INTEGER
68              The leading dimension of B in the calling subprogram.  LDB  must
69              be at least max(1,N).
70
71       RCOND  (input) REAL
72              The  singular  values of A less than or equal to RCOND times the
73              largest singular value are treated as zero in solving the  least
74              squares problem. If RCOND is negative, machine precision is used
75              instead.  For example, if diag(S)*X=B  were  the  least  squares
76              problem,  where diag(S) is a diagonal matrix of singular values,
77              the solution would be X(i) = B(i) / S(i) if S(i) is greater than
78              RCOND*max(S),  and  X(i)  =  0  if S(i) is less than or equal to
79              RCOND*max(S).
80
81       RANK   (output) INTEGER
82              The number of singular values of A greater than RCOND times  the
83              largest singular value.
84
85       WORK   (workspace) COMPLEX array, dimension (N * NRHS).
86
87       RWORK  (workspace) REAL array, dimension at least
88              (9*N  +  2*N*SMLSIZ + 8*N*NLVL + 3*SMLSIZ*NRHS + (SMLSIZ+1)**2),
89              where NLVL = MAX( 0, INT( LOG_2( MIN( M,N )/(SMLSIZ+1) ) ) + 1 )
90
91       IWORK  (workspace) INTEGER array, dimension (3*N*NLVL + 11*N).
92
93       INFO   (output) INTEGER
94              = 0:  successful exit.
95              < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value.
96              > 0:  The algorithm failed to compute an  singular  value  while
97              working  on  the  submatrix lying in rows and columns INFO/(N+1)
98              through MOD(INFO,N+1).
