file	sge.shar
for	LINPACK functions  SGECO/SGEFA/SGESL
#	(dense  matrix conditon number estimate, factorization and solution
#	routines) and some of the BLAS in C.  There is a driver which shows
#	how to set up column oriented matrices in C for these routines.

file	vector.shar
for	Low and Intermediate Level functions to manage vectors in C.
#	In fact, the vector declaration as a special structure and
#	a wide set of procedures to handle it define a class (in
#	the sence of C++ or SMALLTALK). It is still a common C, 
#	however.
#	Features: high reliability and fool-proof checking, the 
#	user can operate on single elements of the vector in the 
#	customary C manner, or he may wish to handle the vector as
#	a whole (as an atomary object) with high-effective functions 
#	(that can clear the vector, assign vectors or obtain their
#	scalar product, find the vector norm(s), etc.).
