# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

#include <gsl/...>

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

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

The library covers the following areas,

```
Complex Numbers
Roots of Polynomials
Special Functions
Vectors and Matrices
Permutations
Combinations
Sorting
BLAS Support
Linear Algebra
Eigensystems
Fast Fourier Transforms
Quadrature
Random Numbers
Quasi-Random Sequences
Random Distributions
Statistics
Histograms
N-Tuples
Monte Carlo Integration
Simulated Annealing
Differential Equations
Interpolation
Numerical Differentiation
Chebyshev Approximations
Series Acceleration
Discrete Hankel Transforms
Root-Finding
Minimization
Least-Squares Fitting
Physical Constants
IEEE Floating-Point
```

For more information please consult the GSL Reference Manual, which is available as an info file. You can read it online using the shell command **info gsl-ref** (if the library is installed).

Please report any bugs to **bug-gsl@gnu.org.**
