GSL(3) Library Functions Manual GSL(3)NAME
gsl - GNU Scientific Library
SYNOPSIS
#include <gsl/...>
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.

gsl-randist - generate random samples from various distributions
SYNOPSYS
gsl-randist seed n DIST param1 param2 [..]
DESCRIPTION
gsl-randist is a demonstration program for the GNU Scientific Library. It generates n random samples from the distribution DIST using the
distribution parameters param1, param2, ...
EXAMPLE
Here is an example. We generate 10000 random samples from a Cauchy distribution with a width of 30 and histogram them over the range -100
to 100, using 200 bins.
gsl-randist 0 10000 cauchy 30 | gsl-histogram -100 100 200 > histogram.dat
A plot of the resulting histogram will show the familiar shape of the Cauchy distribution with fluctuations caused by the finite sample
size.
awk '{print $1, $3 ; print $2, $3}' histogram.dat | graph -T X

I have been trying to run GSL (GSL - GNU Scientific Library - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)) programs in FreeBSD. The library was installed fisrt via make and later via the ports:
cd /usr/ports/math/gsl/ && make install clean
pkg_add -r gsl
Both installation methods worked, to... (1 Reply)
Hi, I have a series of files (upwards of 500) the filename format is as follows
CC10-1234P1999.WGS84.p190
each of this files is in a directory named for the file but excluding the extension.
Now the last three numeric characters, in this case 999, can be anything from 001 to 999, I need to... (3 Replies)
Ok I was trying to test if I installed correctly gsl, I followed the INSTALL file and still I don't know what is wrong. Here is a sample code to test gel,I got it from Random Number Generator Examples - GNU Scientific Library -- Reference Manual
(note: made a few changes in the code)
