# Math::GSL

Math::GSL is a Perl interface to the [GNU Scientific Library](http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/), using [SWIG](http://swig.org).  The GNU

Scientific Library (GSL) is a numerical library for C and C++ programmers. It

is free software under the GNU General Public License.  Math::GSL uses SWIG to

generate Perl bindings to *most* GSL functionality.

[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/leto/math--gsl.png)](http://travis-ci.org/leto/math--gsl)

# Dependencies

Currently `Math::GSL` requires at least Perl 5.8.1 to compile.

## Library dependencies

- GSL version 1.15 or larger. If you have installed GSL on your system,

the location of the library files are determined by running the

`gsl-config` binary. If it cannot be found

in your `PATH`, [PkgConfig](http://metacpan.org/release/PkgConfig/) is

tried to locate GSL.

- If you have not installed GSL on your system,

[`Alien::GSL`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Alien::GSL) is used to

install the latest version on your system. `Alien::GSL` depends

on [`Net::SSLeay`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::SSLeay) to download

the library, which requires that you have

installed `libssl-dev` and `libz-dev` (on Debian platforms, or similar

libraries on other platforms).

# Installation

To install this module, run

```

cpanm Math::GSL

```

or download the tarball distribution

from [metacpan.org](https://metacpan.org/pod/Math::GSL) and run the following

commands:

    perl Build.PL

    ./Build

    ./Build test

    ./Build install clean

# Support

After installing, you can find documentation for this module with the

perldoc command.

    perldoc Math::GSL

# Developer information

## Git repo dependencies

SWIG >= 2.x is needed to build `Math::GSL` from the git repo, version

2.0.8 or newer is required to work with Perl 5.20 and

higher. SWIG 3.x is recommended.

On OS X with Homebrew, you can install swig with:

    brew install swig
