<p class="noindent">The use of these routines is described in this manual.  Each chapter
 
72
provides detailed definitions of the functions, followed by example
 
73
programs and references to the articles on which the algorithms are
 
74
based.
 
75
 
 
76
   <p>Where possible the routines have been based on reliable public-domain
 
77
packages such as FFTPACK and QUADPACK, which the developers of GSL
 
78
have reimplemented in C with modern coding conventions.
