*  Purpose

*  =======

*

*  SSYR   performs the symmetric rank 1 operation

*

*     A := alpha*x*x' + A,

*

*  where alpha is a real scalar, x is an n element vector and A is an

*  n by n symmetric matrix.

*

*  Parameters

*  ==========

*

*  UPLO   - CHARACTER*1.

*           On entry, UPLO specifies whether the upper or lower

*           triangular part of the array A is to be referenced as

*           follows:

*

*              UPLO = 'U' or 'u'   Only the upper triangular part of A

*                                  is to be referenced.

*

*              UPLO = 'L' or 'l'   Only the lower triangular part of A

*                                  is to be referenced.

*

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  N      - INTEGER.

*           On entry, N specifies the order of the matrix A.

*           N must be at least zero.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  ALPHA  - REAL            .

*           On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  X      - REAL             array of dimension at least

*           ( 1 + ( n - 1 )*abs( INCX ) ).

*           Before entry, the incremented array X must contain the n

*           element vector x.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  INCX   - INTEGER.

*           On entry, INCX specifies the increment for the elements of

*           X. INCX must not be zero.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  A      - REAL             array of DIMENSION ( LDA, n ).

*           Before entry with  UPLO = 'U' or 'u', the leading n by n

*           upper triangular part of the array A must contain the upper

*           triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly

*           lower triangular part of A is not referenced. On exit, the

*           upper triangular part of the array A is overwritten by the

*           upper triangular part of the updated matrix.

*           Before entry with UPLO = 'L' or 'l', the leading n by n

*           lower triangular part of the array A must contain the lower

*           triangular part of the symmetric matrix and the strictly

*           upper triangular part of A is not referenced. On exit, the

*           lower triangular part of the array A is overwritten by the

*           lower triangular part of the updated matrix.

*

*  LDA    - INTEGER.

*           On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared

*           in the calling (sub) program. LDA must be at least

*           max( 1, n ).

*           Unchanged on exit.
