<p>The following program solves the linear system <em>A x = b</em>. The
system to be solved is,
and the solution is found using LU decomposition of the matrix <em>A</em>.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="verbatim">#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;gsl/gsl_linalg.h&gt;

int
main (void)
{
  double a_data[] = { 0.18, 0.60, 0.57, 0.96,
                      0.41, 0.24, 0.99, 0.58,
                      0.14, 0.30, 0.97, 0.66,
                      0.51, 0.13, 0.19, 0.85 };

  double b_data[] = { 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 };

  gsl_matrix_view m 
    = gsl_matrix_view_array (a_data, 4, 4);

  gsl_vector_view b
    = gsl_vector_view_array (b_data, 4);

  gsl_vector *x = gsl_vector_alloc (4);
  
  int s;

  gsl_permutation * p = gsl_permutation_alloc (4);

  gsl_linalg_LU_decomp (&amp;m.matrix, p, &amp;s);

  gsl_linalg_LU_solve (&amp;m.matrix, p, &amp;b.vector, x);

  printf (&quot;x = \n&quot;);
  gsl_vector_fprintf (stdout, x, &quot;%g&quot;);

  gsl_permutation_free (p);
  gsl_vector_free (x);
  return 0;
}
</pre></div>

<p>Here is the output from the program,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="verbatim">x = -4.05205
-12.6056
1.66091
8.69377
</pre></div>

<p>This can be verified by multiplying the solution <em>x</em> by the
original matrix <em>A</em> using <small>GNU OCTAVE</small>,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">octave&gt; A = [ 0.18, 0.60, 0.57, 0.96;
              0.41, 0.24, 0.99, 0.58; 
              0.14, 0.30, 0.97, 0.66; 
              0.51, 0.13, 0.19, 0.85 ];

octave&gt; x = [ -4.05205; -12.6056; 1.66091; 8.69377];

octave&gt; A * x
ans =
  1.0000
  2.0000
  3.0000
  4.0000
</pre></div>

<p>This reproduces the original right-hand side vector, <em>b</em>, in
accordance with the equation <em>A x = b</em>.
