14 Linear Algebra ***************** This chapter describes functions for solving linear systems. The library provides linear algebra operations which operate directly on the Note: gsl_vector. and Note: gsl_matrix. objects. These routines use the standard algorithms from Golub & Van Loan’s `Matrix Computations' with Level-1 and Level-2 BLAS calls for efficiency. The functions described in this chapter are declared in the header file ‘gsl_linalg.h’.
