This library provides +a full range of common mathematical operations useful to scientific +and engineering applications. The design of the GSLL interface is +such that access to most of the GSL library is possible in a +Lisp-natural way; the intent is that the user not be hampered by the +restrictions of the C language in which GSL has been written. GSLL +thus provides interactive use of GSL for getting quick answers, even +for someone not intending to program in Lisp. + +Topics include: roots of polynomials, special functions, vectors and +matrices, permutations, sorting, BLAS (basic linear algebra +subprograms), 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 approximation, +series acceleration, discrete Hankel transforms, root-finding, +minimization least-squares fitting, IEEE floating-point, discrete +wavelet transforms." :depends-on (foreign-array grid cffi cffi-grovel trivial-garbage #+fsbv fsbv) :components ((:module init
