subroutine slartg (f, g, c, s, r)
SLARTG generates a plane rotation with real cosine and real sine.

SLARTG generates a plane rotation with real cosine and real sine.

Purpose:

 SLARTG generates a plane rotation so that

    [  C  S  ]  .  [ F ]  =  [ R ]
    [ -S  C  ]     [ G ]     [ 0 ]

 where C**2 + S**2 = 1.

 The mathematical formulas used for C and S are
    R = sign(F) * sqrt(F**2 + G**2)
    C = F / R
    S = G / R
 Hence C >= 0. The algorithm used to compute these quantities
 incorporates scaling to avoid overflow or underflow in computing the
 square root of the sum of squares.

 This version is discontinuous in R at F = 0 but it returns the same
 C and S as CLARTG for complex inputs (F,0) and (G,0).

 This is a more accurate version of the BLAS1 routine SROTG,
 with the following other differences:
    F and G are unchanged on return.
    If G=0, then C=1 and S=0.
    If F=0 and (G .ne. 0), then C=0 and S=sign(1,G) without doing any
       floating point operations (saves work in SBDSQR when
       there are zeros on the diagonal).

 Below, wp=>sp stands for single precision from LA_CONSTANTS module.

Parameters
