## Introduction ## Introduction
OpenBLAS is an optimized Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms library based on GotoBLAS2 1.13 BSD version. OpenBLAS is an optimized BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) library based on GotoBLAS2 1.13 BSD version.
Please read the documentation on the OpenBLAS wiki pages: <https://github.com/xianyi/OpenBLAS/wiki>. Please read the documentation on the OpenBLAS wiki pages: <https://github.com/xianyi/OpenBLAS/wiki>.
For a general introduction to the BLAS routines, please refer to the extensive documentation of their reference implementation hosted at netlib:
<https://www.netlib.org/blas>. On that site you will likewise find documentation for the reference implementation of the higher-level library LAPACK - the **L**inear **A**lgebra **Pack**age that comes included with OpenBLAS. If you are looking for a general primer or refresher on Linear Algebra, the set of six
20-minute lecture videos by Prof. Gilbert Strang on either MIT OpenCourseWare <https://ocw.mit.edu/resources/res-18-010-a-2020-vision-of-linear-algebra-spring-2020/> or Youtube <https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUl4u3cNGP61iQEFiWLE21EJCxwmWvvek> may be helpful.
