3. DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM OR FUNCTION
ACCULIB is a collection of programs and subprograms for:
- approximation and interpolation problems
- the evaluation of series of orthogonal polynomials
- evaluation of the complementary error function
- sorting problems and permutations
- differential equation problems
- linear algebra eigenvalue problems
- optimization problems
- fast Fourier transformations and Fourier series
- numerical quadrature of continuous functions
- lineer systems and other linear algebra problems
- bit manipulation and character handling/transmission
- systems of nonlinear equations, in particular the determination of zeros of polynomials
- solution of overcomplete systems
- plotting routines for contouring and surface representation
- statistical investigation of data
In addition, many utilities such as code conversion, microfiche production, disk file surveys, layout improvements for ALGOL60 and FORTRAN programs, and the conversion of IBM FORTRAN programs to CDC FORTRAN are included in the collection.
