+[I] A software library for numerical linear algebra
+
+[T] LAPACK provides routines for solving systems of linear equations and linear
+[T] least squares, eigenvalue problems, and singular value decomposition.
+[T] It also includes routines to implement the associated matrix factorizations
+[T] such as LU, QR, Cholesky and Schur decomposition. LAPACK was originally
+[T] written in FORTRAN 77 and is now written in Fortran 90. The routines handle
+[T] both real and complex matrices in both single and double precision.
