    About stdlib...
  </summary>
  <p>We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.</p>
  <p>The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.</p>
  <p>When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.</p>
  <p>To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on <a href="https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib">GitHub</a>, and please consider <a href="https://opencollective.com/stdlib">financially supporting stdlib</a>. We greatly appreciate your continued support!</p>

> Perform the symmetric rank 2 operation `A = α*x*y^T + α*y*x^T + A`.

<section class="installation">

## Installation

```bash
npm install @stdlib/blas-base-dsyr2
```

</section>

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var dsyr2 = require( '@stdlib/blas-base-dsyr2' );
```

#### dsyr2( order, uplo, N, α, x, sx, y, sy, A, LDA )

Performs the symmetric rank 2 operation `A = α*x*y^T + α*y*x^T + A`, where `α` is a scalar, `x` and `y` are `N` element vectors, and `A` is an `N` by `N` symmetric matrix.

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var A = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0 ] );
var x = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );
var y = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

dsyr2( 'row-major', 'upper', 3, 1.0, x, 1, y, 1, A, 3 );
// A => <Float64Array>[ 3.0, 6.0, 9.0, 2.0, 9.0, 14.0, 3.0, 2.0, 19.0 ]
```

The function has the following parameters:

-   **order**: storage layout.
-   **uplo**: specifies whether the upper or lower triangular part of the symmetric matrix `A` should be referenced.
-   **N**: number of elements along each dimension of `A`.
-   **α**: scalar constant.
-   **x**: first input [`Float64Array`][mdn-float64array].
-   **sx**: stride length for `x`.
-   **y**: second input [`Float64Array`][mdn-float64array].
-   **sy**: stride length for `y`.
-   **A**: input matrix stored in linear memory as a [`Float64Array`][mdn-float64array].
-   **LDA**: stride of the first dimension of `A` (a.k.a., leading dimension of the matrix `A`).

The stride parameters determine how elements in the input arrays are accessed at runtime. For example, to iterate over every other element of `x`,

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var A = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0 ] );
var x = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ] );
var y = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

dsyr2( 'row-major', 'upper', 3, 1.0, x, 2, y, 1, A, 3 );
// A => <Float64Array>[ 3.0, 7.0, 11.0, 2.0, 13.0, 21.0, 3.0, 2.0, 31.0 ]
```

Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views.

<!-- eslint-disable stdlib/capitalized-comments -->

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

// Initial arrays...
var x0 = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ] );
var y0 = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );
var A = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0 ] );

// Create offset views...
var x1 = new Float64Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
var y1 = new Float64Array( y0.buffer, y0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element

dsyr2( 'row-major', 'upper', 3, 1.0, x1, 1, y1, 1, A, 3 );
// A => <Float64Array>[ 3.0, 5.0, 7.0, 2.0, 5.0, 7.0, 3.0, 2.0, 7.0 ]
```

#### dsyr2.ndarray( uplo, N, α, x, sx, ox, y, sy, oy, A, sa1, sa2, oa )

Performs the symmetric rank 2 operation `A = α*x*y^T + α*y*x^T + A`, using alternative indexing semantics and where `α` is a scalar, `x` and `y` are `N` element vectors, and `A` is an `N` by `N` symmetric matrix.

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var A = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0 ] );
var x = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );
var y = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

dsyr2.ndarray( 'upper', 3, 1.0, x, 1, 0, y, 1, 0, A, 3, 1, 0 );
// A => <Float64Array>[ 3.0, 6.0, 9.0, 2.0, 9.0, 14.0, 3.0, 2.0, 19.0 ]
```

The function has the following additional parameters:

-   **ox**: starting index for `x`.
-   **oy**: starting index for `y`.
-   **sa1**: stride of the first dimension of `A`.
-   **sa2**: stride of the second dimension of `A`.
-   **oa**: starting index for `A`.

While [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views mandate a view offset based on the underlying buffer, the offset parameters support indexing semantics based on starting indices. For example,

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var A = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0 ] );
var x = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ] );
var y = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

dsyr2.ndarray( 'upper', 3, 1.0, x, -2, 4, y, 1, 0, A, 3, 1, 0 );
// A => <Float64Array>[ 11.0, 15.0, 19.0, 2.0, 13.0, 13.0, 3.0, 2.0, 7.0 ]
```
