Linux distribution; size 1754KB.

Cephes Mathematical Library. Latest Linux distribution, dated 6/4/00. 
Special functions and other goodies in C, including long double 
precision routines for 68K, 386, and sparc processors. This is the most 
complete distribution package of the function library (but not the most 
up-to-date one). It includes these sections-- double: all functions in 
64-bit double precision; single: all available functions in 32-bit 
single precision; long double: all available functions in 80-bit 
extended precision; 128bit: all available functions in 128-bit long 
double precision; qlib: all functions in q-type extended (44 to 106 
decimal) precision, includes a C++ class for the binary floating point 
arithmetic and a q-type calculator program; c9x-complex: new C language 
standard C9X data type for complex variables, header complex.h for GNU C 
and functions in float complex, double complex, and long double complex 
precisions. For latest versions, see the individual zip files below.
