GNU Scientific Library - Routines for numerical computing

The GNU Scientific Library (GSL) is a collection of routines for numerical computing. The routines are written from scratch by the GSL team in ANSI C, and present a modern API for C programmers, while allowing wrappers to be written for very high-level languages.

The library is stable and available for general use. An extensive test suite is available.
