subroutine zrotg (a, b, c, s)
ZROTG generates a Givens rotation with real cosine and complex sine.

ZROTG generates a Givens rotation with real cosine and complex sine.

Purpose:

 ZROTG constructs a plane rotation
    [  c         s ] [ a ] = [ r ]
    [ -conjg(s)  c ] [ b ]   [ 0 ]
 where c is real, s is complex, and c**2 + conjg(s)*s = 1.

 The computation uses the formulas
    |x| = sqrt( Re(x)**2 + Im(x)**2 )
    sgn(x) = x / |x|  if x /= 0
           = 1        if x  = 0
    c = |a| / sqrt(|a|**2 + |b|**2)
    s = sgn(a) * conjg(b) / sqrt(|a|**2 + |b|**2)
    r = sgn(a)*sqrt(|a|**2 + |b|**2)
 When a and b are real and r /= 0, the formulas simplify to
    c = a / r
    s = b / r
 the same as in DROTG when |a| > |b|.  When |b| >= |a|, the
 sign of c and s will be different from those computed by DROTG
 if the signs of a and b are not the same.
