DSICO(3F)DSICO(3F)NAMEDSICO - DSICO factors a double precision symmetric matrix by
elimination with symmetric pivoting and estimates the condition of the
matrix.
If RCOND is not needed, DSIFA is slightly faster. To solve A*X = B ,
follow DSICO by DSISL. To compute INVERSE(A)*C , follow DSICO by DSISL.
To compute INVERSE(A) , follow DSICO by DSIDI. To compute
DETERMINANT(A) , follow DSICO by DSIDI. To compute INERTIA(A), follow
DSICO by DSIDI.

SUBROUTINE DSICO(A,LDA,N,KPVT,RCOND,Z)
DESCRIPTION
On Entry
A DOUBLE PRECISION(LDA, N)
the symmetric matrix to be factored.
Only the diagonal and upper triangle are used.
LDA INTEGER
the leading dimension of the array A .
N INTEGER
the order of the matrix A . Output
A a block diagonal matrix and the multipliers which
were used to obtain it.
The factorization can be written A = U*D*TRANS(U)
where U is a product of permutation and unit
upper triangular matrices, TRANS(U) is the
transpose of U , and D is block diagonal
with 1 by 1 and 2 by 2 blocks.
KPVT INTEGER(N)
an integer vector of pivot indices.
RCOND DOUBLE PRECISION
an estimate of the reciprocal condition of A .
For the system A*X = B , relative perturbations
in A and B of size EPSILON may cause
relative perturbations in X of size EPSILON/RCOND .
If RCOND is so small that the logical expression
1.0 + RCOND .EQ. 1.0
is true, then A may be singular to working
precision. In particular, RCOND is zero if
exact singularity is detected or the estimate
underflows.
Z DOUBLE PRECISION(N)

DSICO(3F)DSICO(3F)
a work vector whose contents are usually unimportant.
If A is close to a singular matrix, then Z is
an approximate null vector in the sense that
NORM(A*Z) = RCOND*NORM(A)*NORM(Z) . LINPACK. This version dated
