SUBROUTINE SPPFA(AP,N,INFO)
      INTEGER N,INFO
      REAL AP(1)
C
C     SPPFA FACTORS A REAL SYMMETRIC POSITIVE DEFINITE
C     MATRIX STORED IN PACKED FORM.
C
C     SPPFA IS USUALLY CALLED BY SPPCO, BUT IT CAN BE CALLED
C     DIRECTLY WITH A SAVING IN TIME IF  RCOND  IS NOT NEEDED.
C     (TIME FOR SPPCO) = (1 + 18/N)*(TIME FOR SPPFA) .
