Tell me more ×  I'm in the process of choosing a scientific
library to use as a basis for a project. I need to do a lot of
statistical, linear algebra, and signal processing tasks, and I
figured there are probably some great libraries that already do
this stuff better than I could program it myself.  For c++, I
know about Boost, but don't have much experience to evaluate it.
I have also heard of the GNU Scientific Library (GSL). Does
anyone have experience with these or another library, and what
are your opinions? Which ones are generally preferred? Any info
would be great. Thanks.  share|improve this question +1 for
acknowledging the usefulness of libraries –  Stefan Valianu Jun

version of the GSL doesn't directly support Windows IIRC,
although it can be made to work on it. –  Timo Geusch Jun 25 '10
at 20:16 for "statistics, linear algebra", I think the solution
set will be very different than signal processing. –  Warren P
