C***DESCRIPTION
C
C    Subroutine CGEFS solves A general NxN system of complex
C    linear equations using LINPACK subroutines CGECO
C    and CGESL.  That is, if A is an NxN complex matrix
C    and if X  and B are complex  N-vectors, then CGEFS
C    solves the equation
C
C                          A*X=B.
C
C    The matrix A is first factored into upper and lower tri-
C    angular matrices U and L using partial pivoting.  These
C    factors and the pivoting information are used to find the
C    solution vector X.  An approximate condition number is
C    calculated to provide a rough estimate of the number of
C    digits of accuracy in the computed solution.
C
C    If the equation A*X=B is to be solved for more than one vector
C    B, the factoring of A does not need to be performed again and
C    the option to only solve (ITASK .GT. 1) will be faster for
C    the succeeding solutions.  In this case, the contents of A,
C    LDA, N and IWORK must not have been altered by the user follow-
C    ing factorization (ITASK=1).  IND will not be changed by CGEFS
C    in this case.

C  Argument Description ***
C
C    A      COMPLEX(LDA,N)
C             on entry, the doubly subscripted array with dimension
C               (LDA,N) which contains the coefficient matrix.
C             on return, an upper triangular matrix U and the
C               multipliers necessary to construct a matrix L
C               so that A=L*U.
C    LDA    INTEGER
C             the leading dimension of the array A.  LDA must be great-
C             er than or equal to N.  (Terminal error message IND=-1)
C    N      INTEGER
C             the order of the matrix A.  The first N elements of
C             the array A are the elements of the first column of
C             the matrix A.  N must be greater than or equal to 1.
C             (Terminal error message IND=-2)
C    V      COMPLEX(N)
C             on entry, the singly subscripted array(vector) of di-
C               mension N which contains the right hand side B of a
C               system of simultaneous linear equations A*X=B.
C             on return, V contains the solution vector, X .
C    ITASK  INTEGER
C             if ITASK=1, the matrix A is factored and then the
C               linear equation is solved.
C             if ITASK .GT. 1, the equation is solved using the existing
C               factored matrix A and IWORK.
C             if ITASK .LT. 1, then terminal error message IND=-3 is
C               printed.
C    IND    INTEGER
C             GT.0  IND is a rough estimate of the number of digits
C                     of accuracy in the solution, X.
C             LT.0  see error message corresponding to IND below.
C    WORK   COMPLEX(N)
C             a singly subscripted array of dimension at least N.
C    IWORK  INTEGER(N)
C             a singly subscripted array of dimension at least N.

C  Error Messages Printed ***
C
C    IND=-1  terminal   N is greater than LDA.
C    IND=-2  terminal   N is less than 1.
C    IND=-3  terminal   ITASK is less than 1.
C    IND=-4  terminal   The matrix A is computationally singular.
C                         A solution has not been computed.
C    IND=-10 warning    The solution has no apparent significance.
C                         The solution may be inaccurate or the matrix
C                         A may be poorly scaled.
C
C               NOTE-  The above terminal(*fatal*) error messages are
C                      designed to be handled by XERMSG in which
C                      LEVEL=1 (recoverable) and IFLAG=2 .  LEVEL=0
C                      for warning error messages from XERMSG.  Unless
C                      the user provides otherwise, an error message
C                      will be printed followed by an abort.
