More numerical functions for C and C++ developers
17 August 2010
The largest collection of numerical algorithms for C and C++ has been expanded.
The largest commercially available collection of numerical algorithms for C and C++, NAG C Library, widely used for electronics application development, has now been expanded by the Numerical Algorithms Group (NAG) with the addition of over 150 functions for a total of over 1300 user-callable functions; many of which are key to embedded products development, chip design, and other areas of electronics research.
The new release of The NAG Library includes two new chapters on wavelet transforms and global optimisation. A new sub-chapter has also been introduced on option pricing.
Enhancements have been made in the areas of statistics, optimisation, linear algebra, ordinary differential equations, regression, random numbers, sorting, and special functions.
“We are looking forward to this release because we have found that the NAG Library is very reliable and easy to work with, through its extensive documentation and very knowledgeable support team,” said Bo Yuan, Chief Technology Officer of Ibbotson Associates. “NAG offers us powerful optimisation techniques and broad environment support. NAG also enables the use of serial and parallel processor-based numerical computation.”
Ibbotson Associates is a registered investment advisor and wholly-owned subsidiary of Morningstar, Inc., a provider of independent investment research that has various teams of programmers who develop applications in C++ as well as other languages.
With origins in several UK universities, the Numerical Algorithms Group is an Oxford headquartered not-for-profit numerical software development organisation that collaborates with leading researchers and practitioners in academia and industry. NAG serves its customers from offices in Oxford, Manchester, Chicago, Tokyo and Taipei, through field sales staff in France and Germany, as well as via a global network of distributors.
