Subject: GNU Scientific Library (GSL) 0.9.3 is released - 4th Beta Test Release
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2001 12:06:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m15k2HR-000IWaC@localhost> (raw)

Dear GSL enthusiasts,

I have placed a new release snapshot of GSL (0.9.3) up for anonymous
ftp access.

The source code is available from the following locations,

       USA: ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/pub/sourceware/gsl/
 Australia: ftp://planetmirror.com/pub/sourceware/gsl/
   Germany: ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/sources.redhat.com/gsl/
        UK: ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/gsl/

The project home page is at http://sources.redhat.com/gsl/

This release fixes all bugs reported recently and adds a few missing
functions.

Please continue testing and report any problems to 
gsl-discuss@sources.redhat.com.

Here are the recent entries in the NEWS file. 

* What is new in gsl-0.9.3:

* Routines for complex LU decomposition are now available, allowing
the solution of systems of equations with complex coefficients.

* Matrix views of vectors now correctly require a unit stride for the
original vector.

* Permutations can now be applied to complex arrays and vectors.

* gsl_sf_pow_int now handles the case x = 0, n < 0

* The static versions of inline functions can now be hidden by
defining the preprocessor macro HIDE_INLINE_STATIC.  This is needed
for some compilers.

* The original seeding procedure of mt19937 is available through the
generator gsl_rng_mt19937_1998.  The seeding procedure was flawed, but
is available for compatibility.

* Added missing functions gsl_complex_div_real and
gsl_complex_div_imag.

* Missing functions for constant vector and matrix views have now been
added.

* Statistical calculations for histograms are now available, and the
gsl-histogram command also displays the histogram mean and standard
deviation.

* The behavior of GSL_IEEE_MODE for denormalized exceptions has been
fixed on Openbsd and Netbsd.

* A pkg-config file gsl.pc is included in the distribution

* The reference manual can now be printed in @smallbook format without
overflow.
