    """
    Solves the linear equation set ``a * x = b`` for the unknown ``x``
    for square ``a`` matrix.

    If the data matrix is known to be a particular type then supplying the
    corresponding string to ``assume_a`` key chooses the dedicated solver.
    The available options are

    ===================  ========
     generic matrix       'gen'
     symmetric            'sym'
     hermitian            'her'
     positive definite    'pos'
    ===================  ========

    If omitted, ``'gen'`` is the default structure.

    The datatype of the arrays define which solver is called regardless
    of the values. In other words, even when the complex array entries have
    precisely zero imaginary parts, the complex solver will be called based
    on the data type of the array.

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : (N, N) array_like
        Square input data
    b : (N, NRHS) array_like
        Input data for the right hand side.
    sym_pos : bool, optional
        Assume `a` is symmetric and positive definite. This key is deprecated
        and assume_a = 'pos' keyword is recommended instead. The functionality
        is the same. It will be removed in the future.
    lower : bool, optional
        If True, only the data contained in the lower triangle of `a`. Default
        is to use upper triangle. (ignored for ``'gen'``)
    overwrite_a : bool, optional
        Allow overwriting data in `a` (may enhance performance).
        Default is False.
    overwrite_b : bool, optional
        Allow overwriting data in `b` (may enhance performance).
        Default is False.
    check_finite : bool, optional
        Whether to check that the input matrices contain only finite numbers.
        Disabling may give a performance gain, but may result in problems
        (crashes, non-termination) if the inputs do contain infinities or NaNs.
    assume_a : str, optional
        Valid entries are explained above.
    transposed: bool, optional
        If True, ``a^T x = b`` for real matrices, raises `NotImplementedError`
        for complex matrices (only for True).

    Returns
    -------
    x : (N, NRHS) ndarray
        The solution array.

    Raises
    ------
    ValueError
        If size mismatches detected or input a is not square.
    LinAlgError
        If the matrix is singular.
    LinAlgWarning
        If an ill-conditioned input a is detected.
    NotImplementedError
        If transposed is True and input a is a complex matrix.

    Examples
    --------
    Given `a` and `b`, solve for `x`:

    >>> a = np.array([[3, 2, 0], [1, -1, 0], [0, 5, 1]])
    >>> b = np.array([2, 4, -1])
    >>> from scipy import linalg
    >>> x = linalg.solve(a, b)
    >>> x
    array([ 2., -2.,  9.])
    >>> np.dot(a, x) == b
    array([ True,  True,  True], dtype=bool)

    Notes
    -----
    If the input b matrix is a 1D array with N elements, when supplied
    together with an NxN input a, it is assumed as a valid column vector
    despite the apparent size mismatch. This is compatible with the
    numpy.dot() behavior and the returned result is still 1D array.

    The generic, symmetric, hermitian and positive definite solutions are
    obtained via calling ?GESV, ?SYSV, ?HESV, and ?POSV routines of
    LAPACK respectively.

    Solve equation a x = b. a is Hermitian positive-definite banded matrix.

    The matrix a is stored in `ab` either in lower diagonal or upper
    diagonal ordered form:

        ab[    i - j, j] == a[i,j]        (if lower form; i >= j)

    Example of `ab` (shape of a is (6, 6), `u` =2)::

        upper form:
        *   *   a02 a13 a24 a35

    """Solve C x = b for x, where C is a circulant matrix.

    `C` is the circulant matrix associated with the vector `c`.

    The system is solved by doing division in Fourier space.  The
    calculation is::

        x = ifft(fft(b) / fft(c))

    where `fft` and `ifft` are the fast Fourier transform and its inverse,
    respectively.  For a large vector `c`, this is *much* faster than
    solving the system with the full circulant matrix.

    Parameters
    ----------
    c : array_like
        The coefficients of the circulant matrix.
    b : array_like
        Right-hand side matrix in ``a x = b``.
    singular : str, optional
        This argument controls how a near singular circulant matrix is
        handled.  If `singular` is "raise" and the circulant matrix is
        near singular, a `LinAlgError` is raised.  If `singular` is
        "lstsq", the least squares solution is returned.  Default is "raise".
    tol : float, optional
        If any eigenvalue of the circulant matrix has an absolute value
        that is less than or equal to `tol`, the matrix is considered to be
        near singular.  If not given, `tol` is set to::

            tol = abs_eigs.max() * abs_eigs.size * np.finfo(np.float64).eps

        where `abs_eigs` is the array of absolute values of the eigenvalues
        of the circulant matrix.
    caxis : int
        When `c` has dimension greater than 1, it is viewed as a collection
        of circulant vectors.  In this case, `caxis` is the axis of `c` that
        holds the vectors of circulant coefficients.
    baxis : int
        When `b` has dimension greater than 1, it is viewed as a collection
        of vectors.  In this case, `baxis` is the axis of `b` that holds the
        right-hand side vectors.
    outaxis : int
        When `c` or `b` are multidimensional, the value returned by
        `solve_circulant` is multidimensional.  In this case, `outaxis` is
        the axis of the result that holds the solution vectors.

    Returns
    -------
    x : ndarray
        Solution to the system ``C x = b``.

    Raises
    ------
    LinAlgError
        If the circulant matrix associated with `c` is near singular.

    See Also
    --------
    circulant : circulant matrix

    Notes
    -----
    For a one-dimensional vector `c` with length `m`, and an array `b`
    with shape ``(m, ...)``,

        solve_circulant(c, b)

    returns the same result as

        solve(circulant(c), b)

    where `solve` and `circulant` are from `scipy.linalg`.

    .. versionadded:: 0.16.0

    Examples
    --------
    >>> from scipy.linalg import solve_circulant, solve, circulant, lstsq

    >>> c = np.array([2, 2, 4])
    >>> b = np.array([1, 2, 3])
    >>> solve_circulant(c, b)
    array([ 0.75, -0.25,  0.25])

    Compare that result to solving the system with `scipy.linalg.solve`:

    >>> solve(circulant(c), b)
    array([ 0.75, -0.25,  0.25])

    A singular example:

    >>> c = np.array([1, 1, 0, 0])
    >>> b = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4])

    Calling ``solve_circulant(c, b)`` will raise a `LinAlgError`.  For the
    least square solution, use the option ``singular='lstsq'``:

    >>> solve_circulant(c, b, singular='lstsq')
    array([ 0.25,  1.25,  2.25,  1.25])

    Compare to `scipy.linalg.lstsq`:

    >>> x, resid, rnk, s = lstsq(circulant(c), b)
    >>> x
    array([ 0.25,  1.25,  2.25,  1.25])

    A broadcasting example:

    Suppose we have the vectors of two circulant matrices stored in an array
    with shape (2, 5), and three `b` vectors stored in an array with shape
    (3, 5).  For example,

    >>> c = np.array([[1.5, 2, 3, 0, 0], [1, 1, 4, 3, 2]])
    >>> b = np.arange(15).reshape(-1, 5)

    We want to solve all combinations of circulant matrices and `b` vectors,
    with the result stored in an array with shape (2, 3, 5).  When we
    disregard the axes of `c` and `b` that hold the vectors of coefficients,
    the shapes of the collections are (2,) and (3,), respectively, which are
    not compatible for broadcasting.  To have a broadcast result with shape
    (2, 3), we add a trivial dimension to `c`: ``c[:, np.newaxis, :]`` has
    shape (2, 1, 5).  The last dimension holds the coefficients of the
    circulant matrices, so when we call `solve_circulant`, we can use the
    default ``caxis=-1``.  The coefficients of the `b` vectors are in the last
    dimension of the array `b`, so we use ``baxis=-1``.  If we use the
    default `outaxis`, the result will have shape (5, 2, 3), so we'll use
    ``outaxis=-1`` to put the solution vectors in the last dimension.

    >>> x = solve_circulant(c[:, np.newaxis, :], b, baxis=-1, outaxis=-1)
    >>> x.shape
    (2, 3, 5)

# Determinant

def det(a, overwrite_a=False, check_finite=True):
    """
    Compute the determinant of a matrix

    The determinant of a square matrix is a value derived arithmetically
    from the coefficients of the matrix.

    The determinant for a 3x3 matrix, for example, is computed as follows::

        a    b    c
        d    e    f = A
        g    h    i

        det(A) = a*e*i + b*f*g + c*d*h - c*e*g - b*d*i - a*f*h

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : (M, M) array_like
        A square matrix.
    overwrite_a : bool, optional
        Allow overwriting data in a (may enhance performance).
    check_finite : bool, optional
        Whether to check that the input matrix contains only finite numbers.
        Disabling may give a performance gain, but may result in problems
        (crashes, non-termination) if the inputs do contain infinities or NaNs.

    Returns
    -------
    det : float or complex
        Determinant of `a`.

    Notes
    -----
    The determinant is computed via LU factorization, LAPACK routine z/dgetrf.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> from scipy import linalg
    >>> a = np.array([[1,2,3], [4,5,6], [7,8,9]])
    >>> linalg.det(a)

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : (M, N) array_like
        Left hand side matrix (2-D array).
    b : (M,) or (M, K) array_like
        Right hand side matrix or vector (1-D or 2-D array).
    cond : float, optional
        Cutoff for 'small' singular values; used to determine effective
        rank of a. Singular values smaller than
        ``rcond * largest_singular_value`` are considered zero.
    overwrite_a : bool, optional
        Discard data in `a` (may enhance performance). Default is False.
    overwrite_b : bool, optional
        Discard data in `b` (may enhance performance). Default is False.
    check_finite : bool, optional

    lapack_driver : str, optional
        Which LAPACK driver is used to solve the least-squares problem.
        Options are ``'gelsd'``, ``'gelsy'``, ``'gelss'``. Default
        (``'gelsd'``) is a good choice.  However, ``'gelsy'`` can be slightly
        faster on many problems.  ``'gelss'`` was used historically.  It is
        generally slow but uses less memory.

        .. versionadded:: 0.17.0

    Returns
    -------
    x : (N,) or (N, K) ndarray
        Least-squares solution.  Return shape matches shape of `b`.
    residues : (0,) or () or (K,) ndarray
        Sums of residues, squared 2-norm for each column in ``b - a x``.
        If rank of matrix a is ``< N`` or ``N > M``, or ``'gelsy'`` is used,
        this is a length zero array. If b was 1-D, this is a () shape array
        (numpy scalar), otherwise the shape is (K,).
    rank : int
        Effective rank of matrix `a`.
    s : (min(M,N),) ndarray or None
        Singular values of `a`. The condition number of a is
        ``abs(s[0] / s[-1])``. None is returned when ``'gelsy'`` is used.

    Raises
    ------
    LinAlgError
        If computation does not converge.

    ValueError
        When parameters are wrong.

def matrix_balance(A, permute=True, scale=True, separate=False,
                   overwrite_a=False):
    """
    Compute a diagonal similarity transformation for row/column balancing.

    The balancing tries to equalize the row and column 1-norms by applying
    a similarity transformation such that the magnitude variation of the
    matrix entries is reflected to the scaling matrices.

    Moreover, if enabled, the matrix is first permuted to isolate the upper
    triangular parts of the matrix and, again if scaling is also enabled,
    only the remaining subblocks are subjected to scaling.

    The balanced matrix satisfies the following equality

    .. math::

                        B = T^{-1} A T

    The scaling coefficients are approximated to the nearest power of 2
    to avoid round-off errors.

    Parameters
    ----------
    A : (n, n) array_like
        Square data matrix for the balancing.
    permute : bool, optional
        The selector to define whether permutation of A is also performed
        prior to scaling.
    scale : bool, optional
        The selector to turn on and off the scaling. If False, the matrix
        will not be scaled.
    separate : bool, optional
        This switches from returning a full matrix of the transformation
        to a tuple of two separate 1D permutation and scaling arrays.
    overwrite_a : bool, optional
        This is passed to xGEBAL directly. Essentially, overwrites the result
        to the data. It might increase the space efficiency. See LAPACK manual
        for details. This is False by default.

    Returns
    -------
    B : (n, n) ndarray
        Balanced matrix
    T : (n, n) ndarray
        A possibly permuted diagonal matrix whose nonzero entries are
        integer powers of 2 to avoid numerical truncation errors.
    scale, perm : (n,) ndarray
        If ``separate`` keyword is set to True then instead of the array
        ``T`` above, the scaling and the permutation vectors are given
        separately as a tuple without allocating the full array ``T``.

    Notes
    -----

    This algorithm is particularly useful for eigenvalue and matrix
    decompositions and in many cases it is already called by various
    LAPACK routines.

    The algorithm is based on the well-known technique of [1]_ and has
    been modified to account for special cases. See [2]_ for details
    which have been implemented since LAPACK v3.5.0. Before this version
    there are corner cases where balancing can actually worsen the
    conditioning. See [3]_ for such examples.

    The code is a wrapper around LAPACK's xGEBAL routine family for matrix
    balancing.

    .. versionadded:: 0.19.0

    Examples
    --------
    >>> from scipy import linalg
    >>> x = np.array([[1,2,0], [9,1,0.01], [1,2,10*np.pi]])

    >>> y, permscale = linalg.matrix_balance(x)
    >>> np.abs(x).sum(axis=0) / np.abs(x).sum(axis=1)
    array([ 3.66666667,  0.4995005 ,  0.91312162])

    >>> np.abs(y).sum(axis=0) / np.abs(y).sum(axis=1)
    array([ 1.2       ,  1.27041742,  0.92658316])  # may vary

    >>> permscale  # only powers of 2 (0.5 == 2^(-1))
    array([[  0.5,   0. ,  0. ],  # may vary
           [  0. ,   1. ,  0. ],
           [  0. ,   0. ,  1. ]])
