?gemv

Compute the product of a vector and a matrix.

That is, , , or .

For the Fortran interface, , , or .

alpha and beta are multiplication coefficients, x and y are vectors, and A is a general m*n matrix.

Description

Input/Output

order

Enumeration type CBLAS_ORDER

Indicates whether the matrix is in row- or column-major order.

Input

trans

Enumeration type CBLAS_TRANSPOSE

Operation on matrix A.

  • If trans = CblasNoTrans, then .
  • If trans = CblasTrans, then .
  • If trans = CblasConjTrans, then .

For the Fortran interface:

  • If TransA = R,

    .

  • If TransA = S,

    .

  • If TransA = D,

    .

Input
