the most commonly occurring problems in numerical linear algebra.

LAPACK is a library of Fortran subroutines for solving the most commonly
|
||||
occurring problems in numerical linear algebra.
|
||||
|
||||
LAPACK is available on netlib and can be obtained via the World Wide
|
||||
Web and anonymous ftp.
|
||||
LAPACK is a freely-available software package. It can be included in commercial
|
||||
software packages (and has been). We only ask that that proper credit be given
|
||||
to the authors, for example by citing the LAPACK Users' Guide. The license used
|
||||
for the software is the modified BSD license, see:
|
||||
https://github.com/Reference-LAPACK/lapack/blob/master/LICENSE
|
||||
|
||||
http://www.netlib.org/lapack/
|
||||
Like all software, it is copyrighted. It is not trademarked, but we do ask the
|
||||
following: if you modify the source for these routines we ask that you change
|
||||
the name of the routine and comment the changes made to the original.
|
||||
|
||||
The distribution tar file contains the Fortran source for LAPACK and the
|
||||
testing programs. It also contains the Fortran77
|
||||
reference implementation of the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms
|
||||
(the Level 1, 2, and 3 BLAS) needed by LAPACK. However this code is
|
||||
intended for use only if there is no other implementation of the BLAS
|
||||
already available on your machine; the efficiency of LAPACK depends
|
||||
very much on the efficiency of the BLAS.
|
||||
We will gladly answer any questions regarding the software. If a modification
|
||||
is done, however, it is the responsibility of the person who modified the
|
||||
routine to provide support.
|
||||
|
||||
LAPACK is available from github at:
|
||||
https://github.com/reference-lapack/lapack
|
||||
|
||||
LAPACK releases are also available on netlib at:
|
||||
http://www.netlib.org/lapack/
|

|
||||
The distribution contains (1) the Fortran source for LAPACK, and (2) its
|
||||
testing programs. It also contains (3) the Fortran reference implementation of
|
||||
the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (the Level 1, 2, and 3 BLAS) needed by
|
||||
LAPACK. However this code is intended for use only if there is no other
|
||||
implementation of the BLAS already available on your machine; the efficiency of
|

LAPACK depends very much on the efficiency of the BLAS. It also contains (4)
|
||||
CBLAS, a C interface to the BLAS, and (5) LAPACKE, a C interface to LAPACK.
|

|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
- LAPACK can be installed with `make`. Configuration have to be set in the
|
||||
- LAPACK can be installed with `make`. The configuration have to be set in the
|
||||
`make.inc` file. A `make.inc.example` for a Linux machine running GNU compilers
|
||||
is given in the main directory. Some specific `make.inc` are also available in
|
||||
the `INSTALL` directory.
|
||||
- LAPACK includes also the CMake build. You will need to have CMake installed
|
||||
on your machine (CMake is available at http://www.cmake.org/). CMake will
|
||||
allow an easy installation on a Windows Machine.

## User Support
|
||||
|
||||
LAPACK has been thoroughly tested, on many different
|
||||
types of computers. The LAPACK project supports the package in the
|
||||
sense that reports of errors or poor performance will gain immediate
|
||||
attention from the developers. Such reports, descriptions
|
||||
of interesting applications, and other comments should be sent by
|
||||
electronic mail to lapack@cs.utk.edu.

|
||||
## Testing
|
||||
|
||||
The complete package, including test code in four
|
||||
different Fortran data types (real, complex, double precision, double
|
||||
complex), contains some 805,000 lines of Fortran source and comments.
|
||||
You will need approximately 33 Mbytes to read the complete tape.
|
||||
We recommend that you run the testing. The total
|
||||
space requirements for the testing for all four data
|
||||
types, including the object files, is approximately 80 Mbytes.
|
||||
|
||||
A README file containing the information in this letter is located
|
||||
in the LAPACK directory. Postscript and LaTeX versions of the Quick
|
||||
Installation Guide are in the `LAPACK/INSTALL` directory, in the files
|
||||
`lawn81.tex`, `psfig.tex`, `lawn81.ps`, and `org2.ps`. Consult the Installation
|
||||
Guide for further details on installing the package and on what is contained
|
||||
in each subdirectory. For complete information on the LAPACK Testing
|
||||
please consult LAPACK Working Note 41 "Installation
|
||||
Guide for LAPACK".
|
||||
LAPACK includes a thorough test suite. We recommend that, after compilation,
|
||||
you run the test suite.

|
||||
as an explanation of its usage. The LAPACK Users' Guide can be purchased from:

## Working Notes
|
||||
|
||||
A number of technical reports were written during the development of
|
||||
LAPACK and published as LAPACK Working Notes, initially by Argonne
|
||||
National Laboratory and later by the University of Tennessee. Many of
|
||||
these reports later appeared as journal articles. Most of these working
|
||||
notes are available in pdf and postscript form from netlib.
