subroutine sptsv (n, nrhs, d, e, b, ldb, info)
SPTSV computes the solution to system of linear equations A * X = B for PT matrices

SPTSV computes the solution to system of linear equations A * X = B for PT matrices  

Purpose:

 SPTSV computes the solution to a real system of linear equations
 A*X = B, where A is an N-by-N symmetric positive definite tridiagonal
 matrix, and X and B are N-by-NRHS matrices.

 A is factored as A = L*D*L**T, and the factored form of A is then
 used to solve the system of equations.

Parameters

N

          N is INTEGER
          The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.

NRHS

          NRHS is INTEGER
          The number of right hand sides, i.e., the number of columns
          of the matrix B.  NRHS >= 0.

D

          D is REAL array, dimension (N)
          On entry, the n diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix
          A.  On exit, the n diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix
          D from the factorization A = L*D*L**T.

E

          E is REAL array, dimension (N-1)
          On entry, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal
          matrix A.  On exit, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the
          unit bidiagonal factor L from the L*D*L**T factorization of
          A.  (E can also be regarded as the superdiagonal of the unit
          bidiagonal factor U from the U**T*D*U factorization of A.)

B

          B is REAL array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
          On entry, the N-by-NRHS right hand side matrix B.
          On exit, if INFO = 0, the N-by-NRHS solution matrix X.

LDB

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

INFO

          INFO is INTEGER
          = 0:  successful exit
          < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
          > 0:  if INFO = i, the leading principal minor of order i
                is not positive, and the solution has not been
                computed.  The factorization has not been completed
                unless i = N.
