+A Haskell library for numerical computation
+-------------------------------------------
+
+A purely functional interface to linear algebra and other numerical algorithms, internally implemented using [LAPACK][lapack], [BLAS][blas], and [GSL][gsl].
+
+This package includes standard matrix decompositions (eigensystems, singular values, Cholesky, QR, etc.), linear systems, numeric integration, root finding, etc.
