function b = r8ut_mv ( m, n, a, x )

%*****************************************************************************80
%
%% r8ut_mv() computes b=A*x, where A is an R8UT matrix.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    The R8UT storage format is used for an M by N upper triangular 
%    matrix.  The format stores all M*N entries, even those which are zero.

%
%  Input:
%
%    integer M, the number of rows of the matrix.
%    M must be positive.
%
%    integer N, the number of columns of the matrix.
%    N must be positive.
%
%    real A(M,N), the R8UT matrix.
%
%    real X(N), the vector to be multiplied by A.
%
%  Output:
%
%    real B(M), the product A * x.
%
  b = zeros ( m, 1 );

  for i = 1 : m
    for j = i : n
      b(i) = b(i) + a(i,j) * x(j);
