*  Purpose
*  =======
*
*  ZSYRK  performs one of the symmetric rank k operations
*
*     C := alpha*A*A' + beta*C,
*
*  or
*
*     C := alpha*A'*A + beta*C,
*
*  where  alpha and beta  are scalars,  C is an  n by n symmetric matrix
*  and  A  is an  n by k  matrix in the first case and a  k by n  matrix
*  in the second case.
*
*  Parameters
*  ==========
*
*  UPLO   - CHARACTER*1.
*           On  entry,   UPLO  specifies  whether  the  upper  or  lower
*           triangular  part  of the  array  C  is to be  referenced  as
*           follows:
*
*              UPLO = 'U' or 'u'   Only the  upper triangular part of  C
*                                  is to be referenced.
*
*              UPLO = 'L' or 'l'   Only the  lower triangular part of  C
*                                  is to be referenced.
*
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  TRANS  - CHARACTER*1.
*           On entry,  TRANS  specifies the operation to be performed as
*           follows:
*
*              TRANS = 'N' or 'n'   C := alpha*A*A' + beta*C.
*
*              TRANS = 'T' or 't'   C := alpha*A'*A + beta*C.
*
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  N      - INTEGER.
*           On entry,  N specifies the order of the matrix C.  N must be
*           at least zero.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  K      - INTEGER.
*           On entry with  TRANS = 'N' or 'n',  K  specifies  the number
*           of  columns   of  the   matrix   A,   and  on   entry   with
*           TRANS = 'T' or 't',  K  specifies  the number of rows of the
*           matrix A.  K must be at least zero.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  ALPHA  - COMPLEX*16      .
*           On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  A      - COMPLEX*16       array of DIMENSION ( LDA, ka ), where ka is
*           k  when  TRANS = 'N' or 'n',  and is  n  otherwise.
*           Before entry with  TRANS = 'N' or 'n',  the  leading  n by k
*           part of the array  A  must contain the matrix  A,  otherwise
*           the leading  k by n  part of the array  A  must contain  the
*           matrix A.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  LDA    - INTEGER.
*           On entry, LDA specifies the first dimension of A as declared
*           in  the  calling  (sub)  program.   When  TRANS = 'N' or 'n'
*           then  LDA must be at least  max( 1, n ), otherwise  LDA must
*           be at least  max( 1, k ).
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  BETA   - COMPLEX*16      .
*           On entry, BETA specifies the scalar beta.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  C      - COMPLEX*16       array of DIMENSION ( LDC, n ).
*           Before entry  with  UPLO = 'U' or 'u',  the leading  n by n
*           upper triangular part of the array C must contain the upper
*           triangular part  of the  symmetric matrix  and the strictly
*           lower triangular part of C is not referenced.  On exit, the
*           upper triangular part of the array  C is overwritten by the
*           upper triangular part of the updated matrix.
*           Before entry  with  UPLO = 'L' or 'l',  the leading  n by n
*           lower triangular part of the array C must contain the lower
*           triangular part  of the  symmetric matrix  and the strictly
*           upper triangular part of C is not referenced.  On exit, the
*           lower triangular part of the array  C is overwritten by the
*           lower triangular part of the updated matrix.
*
*  LDC    - INTEGER.
*           On entry, LDC specifies the first dimension of C as declared
*           in  the  calling  (sub)  program.   LDC  must  be  at  least
*           max( 1, n ).
*           Unchanged on exit.
