For people who are interested in mathematical software available
on the nets.......

LOTS of math software is available over ARPANET, CSNET, Telenet, and
Phonenet.   Currently available software includes LINPACK, EISPACK,
TOEPLITZ, stuff from MINPACK, stuff from QUADPACK, ...., ...., .....
Get the picture?

To get an index of stuff available type (if your running UN*X)

mail research!netlib
send index

on ARPA:
mail netlib@anl-mcs
send index


Requests have the following syntax:
   request line:
      send <names> <exclusions> <libraries>
      send only <names> <libraries>
   exclusions:
      but not <names>
   libraries:
      for <names>
      from <names>
   where <names> is a list of words separated by blanks.

Examples:

send index for toeplitz
send dqags but not dqag from quadpack


That's it.   The service is called NETLIB and is provided by
Argoone National Lab (I think).  Much more I don't know.  Good Luck!
