scipy.linalg.lapack.ssfrk#

scipy.linalg.lapack.ssfrk(n, k, alpha, a, beta, c, transr='N', uplo='U', trans='N', overwrite_c=0) = <flapack function ssfrk>#

Symmetric rank-k update of a matrix held in rectangular full packed (RFP) storage (LAPACK ssfrk).

Computes c := alpha * a @ a.T + beta * c when trans is 'N', or c := alpha * a.T @ a + beta * c when it is 'T'.

Parameters:

nint: Order of the square matrix.
kint: Inner dimension of the update.
alphafloat: Scalar the rank-k term is multiplied by. Real for every flavor.
andarray: Shape (max(n, 1), k) when trans is 'N', (max(k, 1), n) otherwise. The leading dimension follows n and k rather than a, so the row count must match exactly.
betafloat: Scalar c is scaled by before the update. Real for every flavor.
cndarray: The matrix to update, in RFP storage, length n * (n + 1) / 2.
transrstr, optional: 'N' for the normal RFP layout, 'T' for the transposed one. Default is 'N'.
uplostr, optional: 'U' if c holds the upper triangle, 'L' if lower. Default is 'U'.
transstr, optional: 'N' for a @ a.T, 'T' for the transpose product. Default is 'N'.
overwrite_cint, optional: If nonzero, c may be overwritten in place. Default is 0.

Returns:
