subroutine zlartg (f, g, c, s, r)
ZLARTG generates a plane rotation with real cosine and complex sine.

ZLARTG generates a plane rotation with real cosine and complex sine.

Purpose:

 ZLARTG generates a plane rotation so that

    [  C         S  ] . [ F ]  =  [ R ]
    [ -conjg(S)  C  ]   [ G ]     [ 0 ]

 where C is real and C**2 + |S|**2 = 1.

 The mathematical formulas used for C and S are

    sgn(x) = {  x / |x|,   x != 0
             {  1,         x  = 0

    R = sgn(F) * sqrt(|F|**2 + |G|**2)

    C = |F| / sqrt(|F|**2 + |G|**2)

    S = sgn(F) * conjg(G) / sqrt(|F|**2 + |G|**2)

 Special conditions:
    If G=0, then C=1 and S=0.
    If F=0, then C=0 and S is chosen so that R is real.

 When F and G are real, the formulas simplify to C = F/R and
 S = G/R, and the returned values of C, S, and R should be
 identical to those returned by DLARTG.

 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 is the same routine ZROTG fom BLAS1, except that
 F and G are unchanged on return.

 Below, wp=>dp stands for double precision from LA_CONSTANTS module.
