<p class="noindent">The use of these routines is described in this manual. Each chapter
provides detailed definitions of the functions, followed by example
programs and references to the articles on which the algorithms are
based.
<p>Where possible the routines have been based on reliable public-domain
packages such as FFTPACK and QUADPACK, which the developers of GSL
have reimplemented in C with modern coding conventions.
