Hello NetFolks; Please excuse the broad scatter of this message, but it may be of interest to more than one group. I am looking for a scientific subroutine library written in C. (The routines would run the normal range of things: ffts, matrix manipulations, eigenvalues, stats, solutions of systems of equations, etc.) I would prefer to get source code, (and of course public domain libraries :-) ) but would also like to get information about object libraries, and of course any commercial libraries. I suppose I don't have to say this, but PLEASE DO NOT send any code through the network. Please EMAIL references to libraries to me at one of the addresses below. I will summarize and post if there is sufficient demand. (I do not read all of the groups posted to.) (If you do mention object libraries, could you please tell me which machines and operating systems these libraries are intended for.)

In the past while, I have had several requests from people wishing to use "canned" subroutine libraries from C. I usually say "use the IMSL libraries, here's how to call the FORTRAN routines from C ..." and they go off and do that. However, several of these users are intending to move from the machines which have IMSL, and move to other machines. Because these people intend to do their programming in C, rather than FORTRAN, they would like to use libraries which were written in C, to simplify the calling conventions.
