IMSL FORTRAN Numerical Libraries
What are the IMSL FORTRAN Numerical Libraries?
The IMSL FORTRAN Numerical Libraries are a set of FORTRAN routines for
solving various IMSL FORTRAN Numerical Libraries problems including:
- linear systems
- eigensystem analysis
- interpolation and approximation
- integration and differention
- differential equations
- transforms
- nonliear transforms
- optimization
- basic matix/vector operations
- basic statistics
- regression & correlation
- and many statistical and IMSL FORTRAN Numerical Librariesl procedures...
IMSL is a library licensed from Visual Numerics and the name IMSL is
an acronym for the International Mathematical and Statistical
Library. The library contains general-purpose math and statistics
routines for the following areas: eigenvalues and eigenvectors, linear
systems of equations, interpolation and fitting, integration and
differentiation, ordinary and partial differential equations,
transforms, nonlinear equations, optimization, a wide variety of
special functions, basic statistics, regression, correlation, analysis
of variation, categorical and discrete data analysis, nonparametric
statistics, tests of goodness-of-fit and randomness, time series
analysis, cluster analysis, sampling, survival analysis, life testing
and reliability, multidimensional scaling, density and hazard
estimation, line printer graphics, probability distribution functions,
and random number generation.
