%
%  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,3), the matrix.
%
%    real X(N), the vector to be multiplied by A.
%
%    real B(M), the desired result A * x.
%
%  Output:
%
%    real R(M), the residual R = B - A * X.

  r = r83t_mv ( m, n, a, x );

  r(1:m,1) = b(1:m,1) - r(1:m,1);
