function r8cc_write ( col_file, row_file, a_file, m, n, nz_num, col, row, a )

%*****************************************************************************80
%
%% R8CC_WRITE writes a R8CC matrix to three files.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    The R8CC format is the double precision sparse compressed column
%    format.  Associated with this format, we have an M by N matrix
%    with NZ_NUM nonzero entries.  We construct the column pointer
%    vector COL of length N+1, such that entries of column J will be
%    stored in positions COL(J) through COL(J+1)-1.  This indexing
%    refers to both the ROW and A vectors, which store the row indices
%    and the values of the nonzero entries.  The entries of the
%    ROW vector corresponding to each column are assumed to be
%    ascending sorted.
%
%    The R8CC format is equivalent to the MATLAB "sparse" format,
%    and the Harwell Boeing "real unsymmetric assembled" (RUA) format.

%    Input, string COL_FILE, ROW_FILE, A_FILE, the names of the

%    Input, integer NZ_NUM, the number of nonzero elements in the matrix.
%
%    Input, integer COL(N+1), the column pointers.
%
%    Input, integer ROW(NZ_NUM), the row indices.
