I'm having trouble figuring out why a piece of blas call is throwing n error. The problem call is the last blas call. The code compiles without issue and runs fine up until this call then fails with the following message.
** ACML error: on entry to DGEMV parameter number 6 had an illegal value
As far as I can tell everything the input types are correct and array a has I would really appreciate an insight into the problem. Thanks
