.SH PURPOSE
DSYRK  performs one of the symmetric rank k operations

or
.br

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

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.

.SH PARAMETERS
.TP 7
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.
.TP 7
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.
.TP 7
N      - INTEGER.
On entry,  N specifies the order of the matrix C.  N must be
at least zero.
Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
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.
.TP 7
ALPHA  - DOUBLE PRECISION.
On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha.
Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
A      - DOUBLE PRECISION 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.
.TP 7
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.
.TP 7
BETA   - DOUBLE PRECISION.
On entry, BETA specifies the scalar beta.
Unchanged on exit.
.TP 7
C      - DOUBLE PRECISION 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.
.TP 7
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.
