From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Brian Gough To: gsl-announce@sources.redhat.com Cc: gsl-discuss@sources.redhat.com Subject: GNU Scientific Library (GSL) 0.9.3 is released - 4th Beta Test Release Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2001 12:06:00 -0000 Message-id: X-SW-Source: 2001/msg00008.html 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.
