*  Purpose

*  =======

*

*  SSYRK  performs one of the symmetric rank k operations

*

*     C := alpha*A*A' + beta*C,

*

*  or

*

*     C := alpha*A'*A + beta*C,

*

*  where  alpha and beta  are scalars, C is an  n by n  symmetric matrix

*  and  A  is an  n by k  matrix in the first case and a  k by n  matrix

*  in the second case.

*

*  Parameters

*  ==========

*

*  UPLO   - CHARACTER*1.

*           On  entry,   UPLO  specifies  whether  the  upper  or  lower

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

*           follows:

*

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

*                                  is to be referenced.

*

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

*                                  is to be referenced.

*

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  TRANS  - CHARACTER*1.

*           On entry,  TRANS  specifies the operation to be performed as

*           follows:

*

*              TRANS = 'N' or 'n'   C := alpha*A*A' + beta*C.

*

*              TRANS = 'T' or 't'   C := alpha*A'*A + beta*C.

*

*              TRANS = 'C' or 'c'   C := alpha*A'*A + beta*C.

*

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  N      - INTEGER.

*           On entry,  N specifies the order of the matrix C.  N must be

*           at least zero.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  K      - INTEGER.

*           On entry with  TRANS = 'N' or 'n',  K  specifies  the number

*           of  columns   of  the   matrix   A,   and  on   entry   with

*           TRANS = 'T' or 't' or 'C' or 'c',  K  specifies  the  number

*           of rows of the matrix  A.  K must be at least zero.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  ALPHA  - REAL            .

*           On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  A      - REAL             array of DIMENSION ( LDA, ka ), where ka is

*           k  when  TRANS = 'N' or 'n',  and is  n  otherwise.

*           Before entry with  TRANS = 'N' or 'n',  the  leading  n by k

*           part of the array  A  must contain the matrix  A,  otherwise

*           the leading  k by n  part of the array  A  must contain  the

*           matrix A.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  LDA    - INTEGER.

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

*           in  the  calling  (sub)  program.   When  TRANS = 'N' or 'n'

*           then  LDA must be at least  max( 1, n ), otherwise  LDA must

*           be at least  max( 1, k ).

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  BETA   - REAL            .

*           On entry, BETA specifies the scalar beta.

*           Unchanged on exit.

*

*  C      - REAL             array of DIMENSION ( LDC, n ).

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

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

*           triangular part  of the  symmetric matrix  and the strictly

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

*           upper triangular part of the array  C 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 C must contain the lower

*           triangular part  of the  symmetric matrix  and the strictly

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

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

*           lower triangular part of the updated matrix.

*

*  LDC    - INTEGER.

*           On entry, LDC specifies the first dimension of C as declared

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

*           max( 1, n ).

*           Unchanged on exit.
