VEC_$MULT_RSUB_VECTOR             Domain/OS              VEC_$MULT_RSUB_VECTOR


NAME
     vec_$mult_rsub_vector - multiply two single-precision vectors, negate the
     result, add a vector

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

     void vec_$mult_rsub_vector(
          float *start_vec,
          float *mult_vec,
          float *add_vec,
          long int &length,
          float *result_vec)

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

     procedure vec_$mult_rsub_vector(
          in start_vec: univ vec_$real_vector;
          in mult_vec: univ vec_$real_vector;
          in add_vec: univ vec_$real_vector;
          in length: integer32;
          out result_vec: univ vec_$real_vector);

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

           parameter (nvec = 10)

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

           call vec_$mult_rsub_vector(start_vec, mult_vec, add_vec, length, result_vec)

DESCRIPTION
     Vec_$mult_rsub_vector multiplies start_vec by mult_vec, negates the
     result (multiplies by -1), and adds the vector add_vec to produce the
     vector result_vec.  The calculation performed is as follows:

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

     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
          A multiplicand vector.

     mult_vec
          A multiplier vector.

     add_vec
          An addend vector.

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

     result_vec
          The vector created by multiplying start_vec and mult_vec, negating
          the result, and adding add_vec.

NOTES
     When vec_$mult_rsub_vector is used to operate on matrixes in C and Pas-
     cal, start_vec, mult_vec, add_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.
