VEC_$DADD_MULT_CONSTANT           Domain/OS            VEC_$DADD_MULT_CONSTANT


NAME
     vec_$dadd_mult_constant - add two double-precision vectors, multiply by a
     scalar

SYNOPSIS (C)
     #include <apollo/base.h>
     #include <apollo/vec.h>


     void vec_$dadd_mult_constant(
          double *start_vec,
          double *add_vec,
          long int &length,
          double &constant,
          double *result_vec)

SYNOPSIS (Pascal)
     %include '/sys/ins/base.ins.pas';
     %include '/sys/ins/vec.ins.pas';

     procedure vec_$dadd_mult_constant(
          in start_vec: univ vec_$double_vector;
          in add_vec: univ vec_$double_vector;
          in length: integer32;
          in constant: double;
          out result_vec: univ vec_$double_vector);

SYNOPSIS (FORTRAN)
     %include '/sys/ins/base.ins.ftn'
     %include '/sys/ins/vec.ins.ftn'

           parameter (nvec = 10)

           real*8 start_vec(nvec), add_vec(nvec), result_vec(nvec), constant
           integer*4 length

           call vec_$dadd_mult_constant(start_vec, add_vec, length, constant, result_vec)

DESCRIPTION
     Vec_$dadd_mult_constant adds its two argument vectors, start_vec and
     add_vec, then multiplies the result by the scalar constant, and stores
     the final result in result_vec.  It differs from vec_$add_mult_constant
     in that the vectors being handled are double-precision floating point.

     The calculation performed is as follows:

     For each integer I such that 1 <= I <= length,
     result_vec(I) = (start_vec(I) + add_vec(I)) x constant


     start_vec
          An addend vector.

     add_vec
          An addend vector.

     length
          The number of elements to be summed;  normally the same as the
          number of elements in the vectors.

     constant
          The scalar constant by which the result of the addition is
          multiplied.

     result_vec
          The vector created by adding start_vec and add_vec and multiplying
          the resulting vector by constant.

NOTES
     When vec_$dadd_mult_constant is used to operate on matrixes in C and Pas-
     cal, mult_vec and result_vec are row vectors; in FORTRAN, they are column
     vectors.

     As in all the vec_$ calls, the result array must not overlap any of the
     input arrays; the result array may be identical to an input, but must not
     contain any subset of it.   Because of pipelining, using overlapping
     input and output arrays may cause incorrect results.
