Matrix Storage Schemes
LAPACK95 allows the same matrix storage schemes as LAPACK:
- conventional storage
in a two-dimensional array;
- packed storage for symmetric,
Hermitian or triangular matrices;
- band storage for band matrices;
- the use of two or three one-dimensional
arrays to store tridiagonal or bidiagonal matrices.
The name of a routine identifies the storage scheme used, as
explained in Section 2.1.3. For further details see
[1] and the numerical examples in Part II.
