*
*  Purpose
*  =======
*
*  SSPR    performs the symmetric rank 1 operation
*
*     A := alpha*x*x' + A,
*
*  where alpha is a real scalar, x is an n element vector and A is an
*  n by n symmetric matrix, supplied in packed form.
*
*  Arguments
*  ==========
*
*  UPLO   - CHARACTER*1.
*           On entry, UPLO specifies whether the upper or lower
*           triangular part of the matrix A is supplied in the packed
*           array AP as follows:
*
*              UPLO = 'U' or 'u'   The upper triangular part of A is
*                                  supplied in AP.
*
*              UPLO = 'L' or 'l'   The lower triangular part of A is
*                                  supplied in AP.
*
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  N      - INTEGER.
*           On entry, N specifies the order of the matrix A.
*           N must be at least zero.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  ALPHA  - REAL            .
*           On entry, ALPHA specifies the scalar alpha.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  X      - REAL             array of dimension at least
*           ( 1 + ( n - 1 )*abs( INCX ) ).
*           Before entry, the incremented array X must contain the n
*           element vector x.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  INCX   - INTEGER.
*           On entry, INCX specifies the increment for the elements of
*           X. INCX must not be zero.
*           Unchanged on exit.
*
*  AP     - REAL             array of DIMENSION at least
*           ( ( n*( n + 1 ) )/2 ).
*           Before entry with  UPLO = 'U' or 'u', the array AP must
*           contain the upper triangular part of the symmetric matrix
*           packed sequentially, column by column, so that AP( 1 )
*           contains a( 1, 1 ), AP( 2 ) and AP( 3 ) contain a( 1, 2 )
*           and a( 2, 2 ) respectively, and so on. On exit, the array
*           AP is overwritten by the upper triangular part of the
*           updated matrix.
*           Before entry with UPLO = 'L' or 'l', the array AP must
*           contain the lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix
*           packed sequentially, column by column, so that AP( 1 )
*           contains a( 1, 1 ), AP( 2 ) and AP( 3 ) contain a( 2, 1 )
*           and a( 3, 1 ) respectively, and so on. On exit, the array
*           AP is overwritten by the lower triangular part of the
*           updated matrix.
