[comp.sources.wanted] Source code for matrix manipulation package wanted

greg@mobius.Viewlogic.COM (Gregory Larkin) (12/27/90)

Hi all,

Can anyone point me to an ftp site that has the source code (in 'C')
to any matrix manipulation package?

Thanks a lot,

I don't have information on quite what you are asking for, but have
you considered Press & Flannery & al, Numerical Recipes. 

I program in Turbo Pascal myself, and there is the TP Numerical
Toolbox.  Is there a corresponding toolbox for C? If so, there you
are.

I too would be interested in source (C or C++) for matrix manipulation.

There is a version of "Numerical Recipes" in C.  In fact, it's called
"Numerical Recipes in C".  It's published by Cambridge, and the code
is available on a diskette.  I have not used it, however.

A brute force method would be to get a copy of the "f2c" FORTRAN to C
translator from research.att.com and then run that.  Matrix manipulation
libraries in FORTRAN are very common (including the original version of
"Numerical Recipies").
