# The devel/gsl port

## gsl-1.15p0 – GNU Scientific Library

## Description

    The GNU Scientific Library (GSL) is a numerical library for C and C++
    programmers. It is free software under the GNU General Public License.
    The library provides a wide range of mathematical routines such as
    random number generators, special functions and least-squares
    fitting. There are over 1000 functions in total.

    The complete range of subject areas covered by the library includes,

      Complex Numbers		Roots of Polynomials	Special Functions
      Vectors and Matrices  	Permutations		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 Approximation	Series Acceleration
      Discrete Hankel Transforms	Root-Finding		Minimization
      Least-Squares Fitting		Physical Constants	IEEE Floating-Point

    As of 2004, GSL itself is essentially feature complete, the developers
    are not actively working on any major new functionality.
