The bindings includes support for the following: * complex numbers * vector and matrix functions * GSL BLAS * linear algebra * random number generators * statistics * fast fourier transforms * random distributions * special functions * monte carlo integration * quasi random sequences * permutations, combinations and sorting * function integration * function differentiation * function minimization (single dimension only) * polynomial root finding (single dimension only) * chebyshev approximations * function fitting * dgesv, zgesv, dgels, zgels functions from LAPACK The test scripts have been taken from the examples in the GSL reference manual. They both show that the bindings work and serve as examples of how to properly call the functions within Guile. The bindings have been tested against Guile 1.4 and GSL 1.2; they were produced by using SWIG 1.3.
