Assignment5, case 3

for case 3, when it say : using only the non-zero elements of the matrix.

does that mean we need to construct a Sparse BLAS using the websites provided in L14? 

or use LAPACK? but LAPACK is only for solving linear algebra right? 

I am bit stuck here, any help would be appreciated

No, Sparse BLAS isn;t neede here. In fact, what matters for the third part is that only non-zero elements are used.  It does not have to be using BLAS.
