spmv
====

Computes a matrix-vector product with a symmetric packed matrix.

.. _onemkl_blas_spmv_description:

.. rubric:: Description

The ``spmv`` routines compute a scalar-matrix-vector product and add the
result to a scalar-vector product, with a symmetric packed matrix.
The operation is defined as:

.. math::

      y \leftarrow alpha*A*x + beta*y

where:

``alpha`` and ``beta`` are scalars,

``A`` is an ``n``-by-``n`` symmetric matrix, supplied in packed form,

``x`` and ``y`` are vectors of length ``n``.

``spmv`` supports the following precisions.

   .. list-table:: 
      :header-rows: 1

      * -  T 
      * -  ``float`` 
      * -  ``double``
