NAME

nrm2 - nrm2: || x ||_2

SYNOPSIS

Functions


real(wp) function dnrm2 (n, x, incx)
DNRM2 real(wp) function dznrm2 (n, x, incx)
DZNRM2 real(wp) function scnrm2 (n, x, incx)
SCNRM2 real(wp) function snrm2 (n, x, incx)
SNRM2

Detailed Description

Function Documentation

real(wp) function dnrm2 (integer n, real(wp), dimension(*) x, integer incx)

DNRM2

Purpose:

!>
!> DNRM2 returns the euclidean norm of a vector via the function
!> name, so that
!>
!>    DNRM2 := sqrt( x'*x )
!>

Parameters

N 

!>          N is INTEGER
!>         number of elements in input vector(s)
!>

X

!>          X is DOUBLE PRECISION array, dimension ( 1 + ( N - 1 )*abs( INCX ) )
!>

INCX

!>          INCX is INTEGER, storage spacing between elements of X
!>          If INCX > 0, X(1+(i-1)*INCX) = x(i) for 1 <= i <= n
!>          If INCX < 0, X(1-(n-i)*INCX) = x(i) for 1 <= i <= n
!>          If INCX = 0, x isn't a vector so there is no need to call
!>          this subroutine.  If you call it anyway, it will count x(1)
!>          in the vector norm N times.
