The IMSL Fortran Numerical Library

The IMSL Fortran Numerical Library consists of two separate but coordinated Libraries that allow easy user access. These Libraries are organized as follows:

MATH/LIBRARY general applied mathematics and special functions

The User’s Guide for IMSL MATH/LIBRARY has two parts:

a. MATH LIBRARY

b. MATH LIBRARY Special Functions

STAT LIBRARY statistics

Most of the routines are available in both single and double precision versions. Many routines for linear solvers and eigensystems are also available for complex and complex-double precision arithmetic. The same user interface is found on the many hardware versions that span the range from personal computer to supercomputer.

This library is the result of a merging of the products: IMSL Fortran Numerical Libraries and IMSL Fortran 90 Library.
