Description-en: Boost.Math Library development files (default version)
This package forms part of the Boost C++ Libraries collection.
.
This library is divided into three interconnected parts:
* Statistical Distributions: Provides a reasonably comprehensive set of
statistical distributions, upon which higher level statistical tests
can be built.
* Mathematical Special Functions: Provides a small number of high quality
special functions, initially these were concentrated on functions used in
statistical applications along with those in the Technical Report on
C++ Library Extensions.
* Implementation Toolkit: Provides many of the tools required to implement
mathematical special functions.
.
This package is a dependency package, which depends on Debian's default
Boost version (currently 1.71).
