A Description and Comparison of Subroutines for Computing Euclidean Inner Products on the IBM 360

Abstract

Several existing subroutines and an Algol W procedure for computing inner products on the IBM 360, using more precision than long, are described and evaluated. Error bounds (when they exist) and execution timing tests are included.
