<p>Where possible the routines in the library have been written to avoid
dependencies between modules and files. This should make it possible to
extract individual functions for use in your own applications, without
needing to have the whole library installed. You may need to define
certain macros such as <code>GSL_ERROR</code> and remove some <code>#include</code>
statements in order to compile the files as standalone units. Reuse of
the library code in this way is encouraged, subject to the terms of the
GNU General Public License.
