NAME
       gsl - GNU Scientific Library

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gsl/...>

DESCRIPTION
       The GNU Scientific Library (GSL) is a collection of routines for numer-
       ical computing.  The routines are written from scratch by the GSL  team
       in C, and present a modern Applications Programming Interface (API) for
       C programmers, allowing wrappers to be written for very high level lan-
       guages.

       The library covers the following areas,

              Complex Numbers
              Roots of Polynomials
              Special Functions
              Vectors and Matrices
              Permutations
              Combinations
              Sorting
              BLAS Support
              Linear Algebra
              Eigensystems
              Fast Fourier Transforms
              Quadrature
              Random Numbers
              Quasi-Random Sequences
              Random Distributions
              Statistics
              Histograms
              N-Tuples
              Monte Carlo Integration
              Simulated Annealing
              Differential Equations
              Interpolation
              Numerical Differentiation
              Chebyshev Approximations
              Series Acceleration
              Discrete Hankel Transforms
              Root-Finding
              Minimization
              Least-Squares Fitting
              Physical Constants
              IEEE Floating-Point

       For  more information please consult the GSL Reference Manual, which is
       available as an info file.  You can read it online using the shell com-
       mand info gsl-ref (if the library is installed).

       Please report any bugs to bug-gsl@gnu.org.
