Description

The routine computes a QR factorization of a real/complex m-by-n matrix A as A = Q*R.

The routine does not form the matrix Q explicitly. Instead, Q is represented as a product of min(m, n) elementary reflectors :

Q = H(1)*H(2)* ... *H(k), where k = min(m, n)

Each H(i) has the form

H(i) = I - tau*v*vT for real flavors, or

H(i) = I - tau*v*vH for complex flavors

where tau is a real/complex scalar stored in tau[i], and v is a real/complex vector with v1:i-1 = 0 and vi = 1.

On exit, vi+1:m is stored in a(i+1:m, i).

Input Parameters

A <datatype> placeholder, if present, is used for the C interface data types in the C interface section above. See C Interface Conventions for the C interface principal conventions and type definitions.

m

The number of rows in the matrix A (m 0).

n

The number of columns in A (n 0).

a

Array, size at least max(1, lda*n) for column major and max(1, lda*m) for row major layout. Array a contains the m-by-n matrix A.

lda

The leading dimension of a; at least max(1, m) for column major layout and max(1,n) for row major layout.

Output Parameters

a

Overwritten by the factorization data as follows:

on exit, the elements on and above the diagonal of the array a contain the min(n,m)-by-n upper trapezoidal matrix R (R is upper triangular if mn); the elements below the diagonal, with the array tau, represent the orthogonal/unitary matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors.

tau

Array, size at least max(1, min(m, n)).

Contains scalar factors of the elementary reflectors.

Return Values

This function returns a value info.

If info = 0, the execution is successful.

If info = -i, the i-th parameter had an illegal value.

If info = -1011, memory allocation error occurred.
