SLATEC

Julia wrapper for SLATEC Common Mathematical Library.

SLATEC Common Mathematical Library, a comprehensive software library containing over 1400 general purpose mathematical and statistical routines.

Overview

SLATEC includes all or some of the following packages:

• BLAS, basic linear algebra subprograms
  • Use OpenBLAS
• DASSL, the solution of differential/algebraic systems
• DEPAC, the solution of systems of differential equations
• SLAP,DLAP, the solution of double precision or single precision sparse systems of linear equations
  • Use https://github.com/DrTimothyAldenDavis/SuiteSparse
• EISPACK, the computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
  EISPACK has been superseded for the most part by LAPACK
• FCNPAK, associated Legendre (or Ferrers) functions and normalized legendre polynomials FCNPAK
• FFTPACK, fast Fourier transforms
  • Use FFTW
  • https://github.com/fortran-lang/fftpack
• FISHPACK, finite differences for elliptic boundary value problems
• FNLIB, special functions
  • Use https://github.com/scipy/xsf
• LINPACK, solving systems of linear equations.
  LINPACK has been largely superceded by LAPACK
• MACHINE, machine arithmetic constants
• MINPACK, minimization
  • https://github.com/fortran-lang/minpack
• PCHIP, piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation of data
  • Piecewise Cubic Hermite Interpolation Package. Final specifications (Technical Report) | OSTI.GOV
  • https://github.com/jacobwilliams/PCHIP
• QUADPACK, quadrature over finite or infinite 1D intervals
  • https://github.com/jacobwilliams/quadpack
• XERROR, error handling

Note

Focus on fnlib for now.
