real function cla_porpvgrw (uplo, ncols, a, lda, af, ldaf, work)
CLA_PORPVGRW computes the reciprocal pivot growth factor norm(A)/norm(U) for a symmetric or Hermitian positive-definite matrix.

CLA_PORPVGRW computes the reciprocal pivot growth factor norm(A)/norm(U) for a symmetric or Hermitian positive-definite matrix.  

Purpose:

 CLA_PORPVGRW computes the reciprocal pivot growth factor
 norm(A)/norm(U). The 'max absolute element' norm is used. If this is
 much less than 1, the stability of the LU factorization of the
 (equilibrated) matrix A could be poor. This also means that the
 solution X, estimated condition numbers, and error bounds could be
 unreliable.

Parameters

UPLO

          UPLO is CHARACTER*1
       = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
       = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.

NCOLS

          NCOLS is INTEGER
     The number of columns of the matrix A. NCOLS >= 0.

A

          A is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDA,N)
     On entry, the N-by-N matrix A.

LDA

          LDA is INTEGER
     The leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max(1,N).

AF

          AF is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDAF,N)
     The triangular factor U or L from the Cholesky factorization
     A = U**T*U or A = L*L**T, as computed by CPOTRF.

LDAF

          LDAF is INTEGER
     The leading dimension of the array AF.  LDAF >= max(1,N).

WORK

          WORK is REAL array, dimension (2*N)
