VEC_$DMULT_ADD_CONSTANT           Domain/OS            VEC_$DMULT_ADD_CONSTANT


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

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

     void vec_$dmult_add_constant(
          double *start_vec,
          double *mult_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_$dmult_add_constant(
          in start_vec: univ vec_$double_vector;
          in mult_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), mult_vec(nvec), result_vec(nvec), constant
           integer*4 length

           call vec_$dmult_add_constant(start_vec, mult_vec, length, constant, result_vec)

DESCRIPTION
     Vec_$dmult_add_constant multiplies the vector start_vec by mult_vec, adds
     a scalar constant to the product, and stores the result in result_vec.
     It differs from vec_$mult_add_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) x mult_vec(I)) + constant

     Note that the multiplication done by this call is point-wise.  This call
     does not perform matrix multiplication, since the product of two vectors
     is another vector of the same magnitude.

     start_vec
          The vector to be multiplied.

     mult_vec
          The multiplicand vector.

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

     constant
          The scalar to be added to the result of the multiplication.

     result_vec
          The vector created by multiplying start_vec and mult_vec and adding
          constant to the result.

NOTES
     When vec_$dmult_add_constant is used to operate on matrixes in C and Pas-
     cal, mult_vec, result_vec, and start_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.
