Summary : Numerical linear algebra package libraries

Description : LAPACK (Linear Algebra PACKage) is a standard library for
: numerical linear algebra. LAPACK provides routines for solving
: systems of simultaneous linear equations, least-squares solutions
: of linear systems of equations, eigenvalue problems, and singular
: value problems. Associated matrix factorizations (LU, Cholesky,
: QR, SVD, Schur, and generalized Schur) and related computations
: (i.e., reordering of Schur factorizations and estimating condition
: numbers) are also included. LAPACK can handle dense and banded
: matrices, but not general sparse matrices. Similar functionality
: is provided for real and complex matrices in both single and
: double precision. LAPACK is coded in Fortran90 and built with gcc.
: This build has 64bit INTEGER support.
