LAPACK is the best linear algebra library and it is free. Hence it would be just stupid not to use it. LAPACK Users’ Guide gives a good introduction in the library, so it is good to have it. The guide with the difference to the code does cost some money but this will be a [...]

Linear algebra algorithms can be written in terms of standard matrix-vector operations. This operations could be optimized for a particular hardware and thus one can increase performance by using the optimized BLAS libraries. In practice this means that it is must to use an optimized BLAS in your work. A nice introduction to BLAS is in [...]

John R. Levine, 1999 Linking is considered to be simple but quite many problems happens exactly at this stage. Especially when it is necessary to work with many libraries, the life gets complicated. The book gives a thorough overview on the linking process, what is linking and what one can expect at this stage. I like [...]

David Kahaner, Cleve Moler, Stephen Nash, 1988 Seu browser não suporta iframes. This book is similar to the Forsythe book, in a way this is an update. I have browsed the book in 1989, while being at NIST and then used the code from the book for some time. The code is available now at [...]

George Elmer Forsythe, Michael A. Malcolm, Cleve B. Moler, 1977 Seu browser não suporta iframes. With this book, I have learned numerical methods, well, it was already pretty long ago, in 1980. I still like this book though. It is nicely written and well suited to learn numerical methods from the practical side. Some disadvantage [...]
