PURPOSE

21       DGELSS computes the minimum  norm  solution  to  a  real  linear  least
22       squares problem: Minimize 2-norm(| b - A*x |).
23       using  the  singular  value  decomposition  (SVD)  of A. A is an M-by-N
24       matrix which may be rank-deficient.
25       Several right hand side vectors b and solution vectors x can be handled
26       in a single call; they are stored as the columns of the M-by-NRHS right
27       hand side matrix B and the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.
28       The effective rank of A is determined by treating as zero those  singu‐
29       lar values which are less than RCOND times the largest singular value.

ARGUMENTS

32       M       (input) INTEGER
33               The number of rows of the matrix A. M >= 0.
34
35       N       (input) INTEGER
36               The number of columns of the matrix A. N >= 0.
37
38       NRHS    (input) INTEGER
39               The  number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns of
40               the matrices B and X. NRHS >= 0.
41
42       A       (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDA,N)
43               On entry, the M-by-N matrix A.  On  exit,  the  first  min(m,n)
44               rows  of  A  are  overwritten  with its right singular vectors,
45               stored rowwise.
46
47       LDA     (input) INTEGER
48               The leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max(1,M).
49
50       B       (input/output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
51               On entry, the M-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B.  On  exit,  B
52               is  overwritten  by the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.  If m >= n
53               and RANK = n, the residual sum-of-squares for the  solution  in
54               the  i-th  column  is  given  by the sum of squares of elements
55               n+1:m in that column.
56
57       LDB     (input) INTEGER
58               The leading dimension of the array B. LDB >= max(1,max(M,N)).
59
60       S       (output) DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension (min(M,N))
61               The singular values of A in decreasing  order.   The  condition
62               number of A in the 2-norm = S(1)/S(min(m,n)).
63
64       RCOND   (input) DOUBLE PRECISION
65               RCOND  is  used to determine the effective rank of A.  Singular
66               values S(i) <= RCOND*S(1) are treated as zero.  If RCOND  <  0,
67               machine precision is used instead.
68
69       RANK    (output) INTEGER
70               The  effective  rank  of A, i.e., the number of singular values
71               which are greater than RCOND*S(1).
72
73       WORK      (workspace/output)   DOUBLE   PRECISION   array,    dimension
74       (MAX(1,LWORK))
75               On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the optimal LWORK.
76
77       LWORK   (input) INTEGER
78               The dimension of the array WORK. LWORK >= 1, and also: LWORK >=
79               3*min(M,N) + max( 2*min(M,N), max(M,N), NRHS ) For good perfor‐
80               mance, LWORK should generally be larger.  If LWORK = -1, then a
81               workspace query is assumed; the  routine  only  calculates  the
82               optimal size of the WORK array, returns this value as the first
83               entry of the WORK array, and no error message related to  LWORK
84               is issued by XERBLA.
85
86       INFO    (output) INTEGER
87               = 0:  successful exit
88               < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value.
89               >  0:   the algorithm for computing the SVD failed to converge;
90               if INFO = i, i off-diagonal elements of an intermediate bidiag‐
91               onal form did not converge to zero.
