BLAS1_S
Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms
Level 1
Single Precision Real Arithmetic


BLAS1_S, a FORTRAN77 library which constitutes the Level 1 Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS), for vector-vector operations using single precision real arithmetic, by Charles Lawson, Richard Hanson, David Kincaid, Fred Krogh.

The BLAS are a small core library of linear algebra utilities, which can be highly optimized for various architectures. Software that relies on the BLAS is thus highly portable, and will typically run very efficiently.
