IMPLEMENTATION
     These routines are part of the SCSL Scientific Library and can be loaded
     using either the -lscs or the -lscs_mp option.  The -lscs_mp option
     directs the linker to use the multi-processor version of the library.

     When linking to SCSL with -lscs or -lscs_mp, the default integer size is
     4 bytes (32 bits). Another version of SCSL is available in which integers
     are 8 bytes (64 bits).  This version allows the user access to larger
     memory sizes and helps when porting legacy Cray codes.  It can be loaded
     by using the -lscs_i8 option or the -lscs_i8_mp option. A program may use
     only one of the two versions; 4-byte integer and 8-byte integer library
     calls cannot be mixed.

     The C and C++ prototypes shown above are appropriate for the 4-byte
     integer version of SCSL. When using the 8-byte integer version, the
     variables of type int become long long and the <scsl_blas_i8.h> header
     file should be included.

DESCRIPTION
     SSYRK and DSYRK perform a symmetric rank k update of a real symmetric
     matrix.

     CSYRK and ZSYRK perform a symmetric rank k update of a complex symmetric
     matrix.

     These routines perform one of the following symmetric rank k operations:

          C <- alpha AAT + beta C

          or

          C <- alpha ATA + beta C

     where the following is true:

     *   AT is the transpose of A;

     *   alpha and beta are scalars;

     *   C is an n-by-n symmetric matrix;

     *   A is an n-by-k matrix in the first operation listed previously, and a
         k-by-n matrix in the second.

     See the NOTES section of this man page for information about the
     interpretation of the data types described in the following arguments.

     These routines have the following arguments:

     uplo      Character.  (input)
               Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of array c
               is referenced, as follows:

               uplo = 'U' or 'u':  only the upper triangular part of c is
               referenced.
               uplo = 'L' or 'l':  only the lower triangular part of c is
               referenced.

               For C/C++, a pointer to this character is passed.

     trans     Character*1.  (input)
               Specifies the operation to be performed, as follows:

               trans = 'N' or 'n':  C <- alpha AAT + beta C

               trans = 'T' or 't':  C <- alpha ATA + beta C

               For C/C++, a pointer to this character is passed.

     n         Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the order of matrix C.  n must be >= 0.

     k         Integer.  (input)

               On entry with trans = 'N' or 'n', k specifies the number of
               columns of matrix A.
               On entry with trans = 'T' or 't', k specifies the number of
               rows of matrix A.

               k must be  >= 0.

     alpha     Scalar factor.  (input)
               SSYRK: Single precision.
               DSYRK: Double precision.
               CSYRK: Single precision complex.
               ZSYRK: Double precision complex.

               For C/C++, a pointer to this scalar is passed when alpha is
               complex; otherwise, alpha is passed by value.

     a         Array of dimension (lda,ka).  (input)
               SSYRK: Single precision array.
               DSYRK: Double precision array.
               CSYRK: Single precision complex array.
               ZSYRK: Double precision complex array.

               When transa = 'N' or 'n', ka is k; otherwise, it is n.
               Contains the matrix A.

               Before entry with trans = 'N' or 'n', the leading n-by-k part
               of array a must contain matrix A; otherwise, the leading k-by-n
               part of array a must contain matrix A.

     lda       Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the first dimension of a as declared in the calling
               program.  If trans = 'N' or 'n', lda >= MAX(1,n); otherwise,
               lda >= MAX(1,k).

     beta      Scalar factor.  (input)
               SSYRK: Single precision.
               DSYRK: Double precision.
               CSYRK: Single precision complex.
               ZSYRK: Double precision complex.

               For C/C++, a pointer to this scalar is passed when beta is
               complex; otherwise, beta is passed by value.

     c         Array of dimension (ldc,n).  (input and output)
               SSYRK: Single precision array.
               DSYRK: Double precision array.
               CSYRK: Single precision complex array.
               ZSYRK: Double complex array.

               Contains the matrix C.  Before entry with uplo = 'U' or 'u',
               the leading n-by-n upper triangular part of array c must
               contain the upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix.  The
               strictly lower triangular part of c is not referenced.  On
               exit, the upper triangular part of the updated matrix
               overwrites the upper triangular part of array c.

               Before entry with uplo = 'L' or 'l', the leading n-by-n lower
               triangular part of array c must contain the lower triangular
               part of the symmetric matrix.  The strictly upper triangular
               part of c is not referenced.  On exit, the lower triangular
               part of the updated matrix overwrites the lower triangular part
               of array c.

     ldc       Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the first dimension of c as declared in the calling
               program.  ldc >= MAX(1,n).

     Note that you can explicitly declare multidimensional C/C++ arrays
     provided that the array dimensions are swapped with respect to the
     Fortran declaration (e.g., x[n][m] in C/C++ versus x(m,n) in Fortran).
     To avoid a compiler type mismatch error in C++ (or a compiler warning
     message in C), however, the array should be cast to a pointer of the
     appropriate type when passed as an argument to a SCSL routine.
