NAME
       PCLASE2  -  initialize  an  M-by-N distributed matrix sub( A ) denoting
       A(IA:IA+M-1,JA:JA+N-1) to BETA on the diagonal and ALPHA on the  offdi-
       agonals

SYNOPSIS
       SUBROUTINE PCLASE2( UPLO, M, N, ALPHA, BETA, A, IA, JA, DESCA )

           CHARACTER       UPLO

           INTEGER         IA, JA, M, N

           COMPLEX         ALPHA, BETA

           INTEGER         DESCA( * )

           COMPLEX         A( * )

PURPOSE
       PCLASE2  initializes  an  M-by-N  distributed  matrix sub( A ) denoting
       A(IA:IA+M-1,JA:JA+N-1) to BETA on the diagonal and ALPHA on the  offdi-
       agonals.  PCLASE2 requires that only dimension of the matrix operand is
       distributed.


       Notes
       =====

       Each global data object is described by an associated description  vec-
       tor.  This vector stores the information required to establish the map-
       ping between an object element and its corresponding process and memory
       location.

       Let  A  be  a generic term for any 2D block cyclicly distributed array.
       Such a global array has an associated description vector DESCA.  In the
       following  comments,  the  character _ should be read as "of the global
       array".

       NOTATION        STORED IN      EXPLANATION
       --------------- -------------- --------------------------------------
       DTYPE_A(global) DESCA( DTYPE_ )The descriptor type.  In this case,
                                      DTYPE_A = 1.
       CTXT_A (global) DESCA( CTXT_ ) The BLACS context handle, indicating
                                      the BLACS process grid A is distribu-
                                      ted over. The context itself is glo-
                                      bal, but the handle (the integer
                                      value) may vary.
       M_A    (global) DESCA( M_ )    The number of rows in the global
                                      array A.
       N_A    (global) DESCA( N_ )    The number of columns in the global
                                      array A.
       MB_A   (global) DESCA( MB_ )   The blocking factor used to distribute
                                      the rows of the array.
       NB_A   (global) DESCA( NB_ )   The blocking factor used to distribute
                                      the columns of the array.
       RSRC_A (global) DESCA( RSRC_ ) The process row over which the first
                                      row  of  the  array  A  is  distributed.
       CSRC_A (global) DESCA( CSRC_ ) The process column over which the
                                      first column of the array A is
                                      distributed.
       LLD_A  (local)  DESCA( LLD_ )  The leading dimension of the local
                                      array.  LLD_A >= MAX(1,LOCr(M_A)).

       Let  K  be  the  number of rows or columns of a distributed matrix, and
       assume that its process grid has dimension p x q.
       LOCr( K ) denotes the number of elements of  K  that  a  process  would
       receive  if K were distributed over the p processes of its process col-
       umn.
       Similarly, LOCc( K ) denotes the number of elements of K that a process
       would receive if K were distributed over the q processes of its process
       row.
       The values of LOCr() and LOCc() may be determined via  a  call  to  the
       ScaLAPACK tool function, NUMROC:
               LOCr( M ) = NUMROC( M, MB_A, MYROW, RSRC_A, NPROW ),
               LOCc(  N ) = NUMROC( N, NB_A, MYCOL, CSRC_A, NPCOL ).  An upper
       bound for these quantities may be computed by:
               LOCr( M ) <= ceil( ceil(M/MB_A)/NPROW )*MB_A
               LOCc( N ) <= ceil( ceil(N/NB_A)/NPCOL )*NB_A


ARGUMENTS
       UPLO    (global input) CHARACTER
               Specifies the part of the distributed matrix sub(  A  )  to  be
               set:
               =  'U':       Upper  triangular part is set; the strictly lower
               triangular part of sub( A ) is not changed; =  'L':       Lower
               triangular  part  is set; the strictly upper triangular part of
               sub( A ) is not changed; Otherwise:  All of the matrix sub( A )
               is set.

       M       (global input) INTEGER
               The  number of rows to be operated on i.e the number of rows of
               the distributed submatrix sub( A ). M >= 0.

       N       (global input) INTEGER
               The number of columns to be  operated  on  i.e  the  number  of
               columns of the distributed submatrix sub( A ). N >= 0.

       ALPHA   (global input) COMPLEX
               The constant to which the offdiagonal elements are to be set.

       BETA    (global input) COMPLEX
               The constant to which the diagonal elements are to be set.

       A       (local output) COMPLEX pointer into the local memory
               to an array of dimension (LLD_A,LOCc(JA+N-1)).  This array con-
               tains the local pieces of the distributed matrix sub( A ) to be
               set.   On exit, the leading M-by-N submatrix sub( A ) is set as
               follows:

               if UPLO = 'U', A(IA+i-1,JA+j-1) = ALPHA, 1<=i<=j-1, 1<=j<=N, if
               UPLO  = 'L', A(IA+i-1,JA+j-1) = ALPHA, j+1<=i<=M, 1<=j<=N, oth-
               erwise,      A(IA+i-1,JA+j-1)  =   ALPHA,   1<=i<=M,   1<=j<=N,
               IA+i.NE.JA+j,  and,  for  all  UPLO,  A(IA+i-1,JA+i-1)  = BETA,

       DESCA   (global and local input) INTEGER array of dimension DLEN_.
               The array descriptor for the distributed matrix A.
