nms


nms, a Fortran77 code which includes a wide variety of numerical software, including solvers for linear systems of equations, a piecewise Hermie cubic (PWH) interpolation package (PCHIP), numerical quadrature, linear least squares data fitting, the solution of nonlinear equations, ordinary differential equations (ODE), optimization and nonlinear least squares (NLS), simulation and random numbers, trigonometric approximation and Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT).

The code accompanies the text "Numerical Methods and Software". The book is a modern discussion of current numerical algorithms and software. The software that comes with the book has been extracted from standard software libraries, particularly the SLATEC library. Thus the book is also a good introduction to the use of a portion of the SLATEC library, which does not have a widely available solid hardcopy reference.

In particular, nms() includes some or all of:
