!> SSYTRD reduces a real symmetric matrix A to real symmetric
!> tridiagonal form T by an orthogonal similarity transformation:
!> Q**T * A * Q = T.

UPLO

!>          UPLO is CHARACTER*1
!>          = 'U':  Upper triangle of A is stored;
!>          = 'L':  Lower triangle of A is stored.
!> 

N

!>          N is INTEGER
!>          The order of the matrix A.  N >= 0.
!> 

A

!>          A is REAL array, dimension (LDA,N)
!>          On entry, the symmetric matrix A.  If UPLO = 'U', the leading
!>          N-by-N upper triangular part of A contains the upper
!>          triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly lower
!>          triangular part of A is not referenced.  If UPLO = 'L', the
!>          leading N-by-N lower triangular part of A contains the lower
!>          triangular part of the matrix A, and the strictly upper
!>          triangular part of A is not referenced.
!>          On exit, if UPLO = 'U', the diagonal and first superdiagonal
!>          of A are overwritten by the corresponding elements of the
!>          tridiagonal matrix T, and the elements above the first
!>          superdiagonal, with the array TAU, represent the orthogonal
!>          matrix Q as a product of elementary reflectors; if UPLO
!>          = 'L', the diagonal and first subdiagonal of A are over-
!>          written by the corresponding elements of the tridiagonal
!>          matrix T, and the elements below the first subdiagonal, with
!>          the array TAU, represent the orthogonal matrix Q as a product
!>          of elementary reflectors. See Further Details.

LDA

!>          LDA is INTEGER
!>          The leading dimension of the array A.  LDA >= max(1,N).
!> 

D

!>          D is REAL array, dimension (N)
!>          The diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T:
!>          D(i) = A(i,i).
!> 

E

!>          E is REAL array, dimension (N-1)
!>          The off-diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix T:
!>          E(i) = A(i,i+1) if UPLO = 'U', E(i) = A(i+1,i) if UPLO = 'L'.
!> 

TAU

!>          TAU is REAL array, dimension (N-1)
!>          The scalar factors of the elementary reflectors (see Further
!>          Details).
!> 

WORK

!>          WORK is REAL array, dimension (MAX(1,LWORK))
!>          On exit, if INFO = 0, WORK(1) returns the optimal LWORK.
!> 

LWORK

!>          LWORK is INTEGER
!>          The dimension of the array WORK.  LWORK >= 1.
!>          For optimum performance LWORK >= N*NB, where NB is the
!>          optimal blocksize.
!>
!>          If LWORK = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the routine
!>          only calculates the optimal size of the WORK array, returns
!>          this value as the first entry of the WORK array, and no error
!>          message related to LWORK is issued by XERBLA.
!> 

INFO

!>          INFO is INTEGER
!>          = 0:  successful exit
!>          < 0:  if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value
