LAPACK is a library of Fortran 77 subroutines for solving
the most commonly occurring problems in numerical linear algebra.
It is freely-available software, and is copyrighted.

The distribution tar file contains the Fortran source for LAPACK, the
testing programs, and the timing programs. It also contains the Fortran77
reference implementation of the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms
(the Level 1, 2, and 3 BLAS) needed by LAPACK. However this code is
intended for use only if there is no other implementation of the BLAS
already available on your machine; the efficiency of LAPACK depends
very much on the efficiency of the BLAS.
The complete package, including test code and timing programs in four
different Fortran data types (real, complex, double precision, double
complex), contains some 805,000 lines of Fortran source and comments.
You will need approximately 33 Mbytes to read the complete tape.
We recommend that you run the testing and timing programs. The total
space requirements for the testing and timing for all four data
types, including the object files, is approximately 80 Mbytes.
We recommend that you run the testing and timing programs.

It is highly recommended that you obtain a copy of the Second Edition of
the LAPACK Users' Guide published by SIAM in February 1995. This Users'
Guide gives a detailed description of the philosophy behind LAPACK as well
as an explanation of its usage. The LAPACK Users' Guide can be purchased from:
SIAM; 3600 University City Science Center; Philadelphia, PA 19104-2688;

LAPACK has been thoroughly tested, on many different
types of computers. The LAPACK project supports the package in the
sense that reports of errors or poor performance will gain immediate
attention from the developers. Such reports, descriptions
of interesting applications, and other comments should be sent by
electronic mail to lapack@cs.utk.edu.
A list of known problems, bugs, and compiler errors for LAPACK is
maintained on netlib.
http://www.netlib.org/lapack/release_notes
A number of technical reports were written during the development of
LAPACK and published as LAPACK Working Notes, initially by Argonne
National Laboratory and later by the University of Tennessee. Many of
these reports later appeared as journal articles. Most of these working
notes are available in pdf and postscript form from netlib.
