SGELS
Purpose
SGELS solves overdetermined or underdetermined real linear systems
involving an M-by-N matrix A, or its transpose, using a QR or LQ
factorization of A. It is assumed that A has full rank.
The following options are provided:
1. If TRANS = 'N' and m >= n: find the least squares solution of
an overdetermined system, i.e., solve the least squares problem
minimize || B - A*X ||.
2. If TRANS = 'N' and m < n: find the minimum norm solution of
an underdetermined system A * X = B.
3. If TRANS = 'T' and m >= n: find the minimum norm solution of
an undetermined system A**T * X = B.
4. If TRANS = 'T' and m < n: find the least squares solution of
an overdetermined system, i.e., solve the least squares problem
minimize || B - A**T * X ||.
Several right hand side vectors b and solution vectors x can be
handled in a single call; they are stored as the columns of the
M-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B and the N-by-NRHS solution
matrix X.

Arguments
| TRANS |
(input) CHARACTER*1
= 'N': the linear system involves A;
= 'T': the linear system involves A**T. |
| M |
(input) INTEGER
The number of rows of the matrix A. M >= 0.
|
| N |
(input) INTEGER
The number of columns of the matrix A. N >= 0.
|
| NRHS |
(input) INTEGER
The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of
columns of the matrices B and X. NRHS >=0. |
| A |
(input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDA,N)
On entry, the M-by-N matrix A.
On exit, if M >= N, A is overwritten by details of its QR factorization as returned by SGEQRF; if M < N, A is overwritten by details of its LQ factorization as returned by SGELQF. |
| LDA |
(input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array A. LDA >= max(1,M).
|
| B |
(input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
On entry, the matrix B of right hand side vectors, stored
columnwise; B is M-by-NRHS if TRANS = 'N', or N-by-NRHS if TRANS = 'T'. On exit, if INFO = 0, B is overwritten by the solution vectors, stored columnwise: if TRANS = 'N' and m >= n, rows 1 to n of B contain the least squares solution vectors; the residual sum of squares for the solution in each column is given by the sum of squares of elements N+1 to M in that column; if TRANS = 'N' and m < n, rows 1 to N of B contain the minimum norm solution vectors; if TRANS = 'T' and m >= n, rows 1 to M of B contain the minimum norm solution vectors; if TRANS = 'T' and m < n, rows 1 to M of B contain the least squares solution vectors; the residual sum of squares for the solution in each column is given by the sum of squares of elements M+1 to N in that column. |
| LDB |
(input) INTEGER
The leading dimension of the array B. LDB >= MAX(1,M,N).
|
| WORK |
(workspace/output) REAL array, dimension (MAX(1,LWORK))
On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the optimal LWORK.
|
| LWORK |
(input) INTEGER
The dimension of the array WORK.
LWORK >= max( 1, MN + max( MN, NRHS ) ). For optimal performance, LWORK >= max( 1, MN + max( MN, NRHS )*NB ). where MN = min(M,N) and NB is the optimum block size. If LWORK = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the routine only calculates the optimal size of the WORK array, returns this value as the first entry of the WORK array, and no error message related to LWORK is issued by XERBLA. |
| INFO |
(output) INTEGER
= 0: successful exit
< 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value > 0: if INFO = i, the i-th diagonal element of the triangular factor of A is zero, so that A does not have full rank; the least squares solution could not be computed. |
