*  Purpose
*  =======
*
*  SPPT02 computes the residual in the solution of a symmetric system
*  of linear equations  A*x = b  when packed storage is used for the
*  coefficient matrix.  The ratio computed is
*
*     RESID = norm(B - A*X) / ( norm(A) * norm(X) * EPS),
*
*  where EPS is the machine precision.
*
*  Arguments
*  =========
*
*  UPLO    (input) CHARACTER*1
*          Specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of the
*          symmetric matrix A is stored:
*          = 'U':  Upper triangular
*          = 'L':  Lower triangular
*
*  N       (input) INTEGER
*          The number of rows and columns of the matrix A.  N >= 0.
*
*  NRHS    (input) INTEGER
*          The number of columns of B, the matrix of right hand sides.
*          NRHS >= 0.
*
*  A       (input) REAL array, dimension (N*(N+1)/2)
*          The original symmetric matrix A, stored as a packed
*          triangular matrix.
*
*  X       (input) REAL array, dimension (LDX,NRHS)
*          The computed solution vectors for the system of linear
*          equations.
*
*  LDX     (input) INTEGER
*          The leading dimension of the array X.   LDX >= max(1,N).
*
*  B       (input/output) REAL array, dimension (LDB,NRHS)
*          On entry, the right hand side vectors for the system of
*          linear equations.
*          On exit, B is overwritten with the difference B - A*X.
*
*  LDB     (input) INTEGER
*          The leading dimension of the array B.  LDB >= max(1,N).
*
*  RWORK   (workspace) REAL array, dimension (N)
*
*  RESID   (output) REAL
*          The maximum over the number of right hand sides of
*          norm(B - A*X) / ( norm(A) * norm(X) * EPS ).
