= 'L' or 'l', DLAMCH := emax
= 'O' or 'o', DLAMCH := rmax
where
eps = relative machine precision
sfmin = safe minimum, such that 1/sfmin does not overflow
base = base of the machine
prec = eps*base
t = number of (base) digits in the mantissa
rnd = 1.0 when rounding occurs in addition, 0.0 otherwise
emin = minimum exponent before (gradual) underflow
rmin = underflow threshold - base**(emin-1)

Purpose
=======
DLAMC1 determines the machine parameters given by BETA, T, RND, and
IEEE1.
Arguments
=========
BETA (output) INTEGER
The base of the machine.
T (output) INTEGER
The number of ( BETA ) digits in the mantissa.
RND (output) LOGICAL
Specifies whether proper rounding ( RND = .TRUE. ) or
chopping ( RND = .FALSE. ) occurs in addition. This may not
be a reliable guide to the way in which the machine performs
its arithmetic.
IEEE1 (output) LOGICAL
Specifies whether rounding appears to be done in the IEEE
'round to nearest' style.
Further Details
===============
The routine is based on the routine ENVRON by Malcolm and
incorporates suggestions by Gentleman and Marovich. See

floating-point arithmetic. Comms. of the ACM, 15, 949-951.

Purpose
=======
DLAMC2 determines the machine parameters specified in its argument
list.
Arguments
=========
BETA (output) INTEGER
The base of the machine.
T (output) INTEGER
The number of ( BETA ) digits in the mantissa.
RND (output) LOGICAL
Specifies whether proper rounding ( RND = .TRUE. ) or
chopping ( RND = .FALSE. ) occurs in addition. This may not
be a reliable guide to the way in which the machine performs
its arithmetic.
EPS (output) DOUBLE PRECISION
The smallest positive number such that
fl( 1.0 - EPS ) .LT. 1.0,
where fl denotes the computed value.
EMIN (output) INTEGER
The minimum exponent before (gradual) underflow occurs.
RMIN (output) DOUBLE PRECISION
The smallest normalized number for the machine, given by
BASE**( EMIN - 1 ), where BASE is the floating point value
of BETA.
EMAX (output) INTEGER
The maximum exponent before overflow occurs.
RMAX (output) DOUBLE PRECISION
The largest positive number for the machine, given by
BASE**EMAX * ( 1 - EPS ), where BASE is the floating point
value of BETA.
Further Details
===============
The computation of EPS is based on a routine PARANOIA by
W. Kahan of the University of California at Berkeley.

Purpose
=======
DLAMC5 attempts to compute RMAX, the largest machine floating-point
number, without overflow. It assumes that EMAX + abs(EMIN) sum
approximately to a power of 2. It will fail on machines where this
assumption does not hold, for example, the Cyber 205 (EMIN = -28625,
EMAX = 28718). It will also fail if the value supplied for EMIN is
too large (i.e. too close to zero), probably with overflow.
Arguments
=========
BETA (input) INTEGER
The base of floating-point arithmetic.
P (input) INTEGER
The number of base BETA digits in the mantissa of a
floating-point value.
EMIN (input) INTEGER
The minimum exponent before (gradual) underflow.
IEEE (input) LOGICAL
A logical flag specifying whether or not the arithmetic
system is thought to comply with the IEEE standard.
EMAX (output) INTEGER
The largest exponent before overflow
RMAX (output) DOUBLE PRECISION
The largest machine floating-point number.
=====================================================================
First compute LEXP and UEXP, two powers of 2 that bound
abs(EMIN). We then assume that EMAX + abs(EMIN) will sum
approximately to the bound that is closest to abs(EMIN).
(EMAX is the exponent of the required number RMAX). */
