SYNOPSIS
     Single precision complex

          Fortran:
               CALL CHEMV (uplo, n, alpha, a, lda, x, incx, *beta, y, incy)

          C/C++:

               *beta, scsl_complex *y, int incy);

          C++ STL:
               #include <complex.h>
               #include <scsl_blas.h>
               void chemv (char *uplo, int n, complex<float> *alpha,
               complex<float> *a, int lda, complex<float> *x, int x,
               complex<float> *beta, complex<float> *y, int incy);

     Double precision complex

          Fortran:
               CALL ZHEMV (uplo, n, alpha, a, lda, x, incx, beta, y, incy)

          C/C++:
               #include <scsl_blas.h>
               void zhemv (char *uplo, int n, s csl_zomplex *alpha,
               scsl_zomplex *a, int lda, scsl_zomplex *x, int x, scsl_zomplex
               *beta, scsl_zomplex *y, int incy);

          C++ STL:
               #include <complex.h>
               #include <scsl_blas.h>
               void zhemv (char *uplo, int n, complex<double> *alpha,
               complex<double> *a, int lda, complex<double> *x, int x,
               complex<double> *beta, complex<double> *y, int incy);

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
     These routines perform the following matrix-vector operation:

          y <- alpha Ax + beta y

     where alpha and beta are scalars, x and y are n-element vectors, and A is
     an n-by-n Hermitian matrix.

     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 a
               is referenced, as follows:

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

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

     n         Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the order of matrix A.  n >= 0.

     alpha     Scalar alpha.  (input)
               CHEMV: Single precision complex.
               ZHEMV: Double precision complex.

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

     a         Array of dimension (lda,n).  (input)
               CHEMV: Complex array.
               ZHEMV: Double complex array.

               Before entry with uplo = 'U' or 'u', the leading n-by-n upper
               triangular part of array a must contain the upper triangular
               part of the Hermitian matrix.  The strictly lower triangular
               part of a is not referenced.

               Before entry with uplo = 'L' or 'l', the leading n-by-n lower
               triangular part of array a must contain the lower triangular
               part of the Hermitian matrix.  The strictly upper triangular
               part of a is not referenced.

               The imaginary parts of the diagonal elements need not be set
               and are assumed to be 0.

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

     x         Array of dimension 1+(n-1) * |incx|.  (input)
               CHEMV: Single precision complex array.
               ZHEMV: Double precision complex array.
               Contains vector x.

     incx      Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the increment for the elements of x.  incx must not
               be 0.

     beta      Scalar beta.  If beta is supplied as 0, y need not be set on
               input.
               CHEMV: Single precision complex.
               ZHEMV: Double precision complex.

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

     y         Array of dimension 1+(n-1) * |incy|.  (input and output)
               CHEMV: Single precision complex array.
               ZHEMV: Double precision complex array.
               Contains vector y.  On exit, the updated vector overwrites
               array y.

     incy      Integer.  (input)
               Specifies the increment for the elements of y.  incy must not
               be 0.

NOTES
     CHEMV/ZHEMV is a Level 2 Basic Linear Algebra Subprogram (Level 2 BLAS).

     When working backward (incx < 0 or incy < 0), this routine starts at the
     end of the vector and moves backward, as follows:

          x(1-incx * (n-1)), x(1-incx * (n-2)) , ..., x(1)

          y(1-incy * (n-1)), y(1-incy * (n-2)) , ..., y(1)


   Data Types
     The following data types are described in this documentation:

          Double precision complex      scsl_zomplex

     C++ STL:

          Array dimensioned n           x[n]

          Array of dimensions (m, n)    x[m*n]

          Character                     char

          Integer                       int (long long for -lscs_i8[_mp])

          Single precision complex      complex<float>

          Double precision complex      complex<double>

     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.
