Name:
CLMath
Summary:
Common Lisp library of mathematical functions.
Version:
1989
Description:
CLMath is a Lisp library of mathematical functions that calculate
hyperbolic and inverse hyperbolic functions, Bessel functions,
elliptic integrals, the gamma and beta functions, and the incomplete
gamma and beta functions. There are probability density functions,
cumulative distributions, and random number generators for the normal,
Poisson, chi-square, Student's T, and Snedecor's F functions. Discrete
Fourier Transforms. Multiple linear regression, Fletcher-Powell
unconstrained minimization, numerical integration, root finding,
and convergence. Code to factor numbers and to do the
Solovay-Strassen probabilistic prime test is included.
