Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install libgraphblas2 on Debian 10.
What is libgraphblas2
libgraphblas2 is:
Suitesparse is a collection of libraries for computations involving sparse matrices.
SuiteSparse:GraphBLAS is an full implementation of the GraphBLAS standard, which defines a set of sparse matrix operations on an extended algebra of semirings using an almost unlimited variety of operators and types. When applied to sparse adjacency matrices, these algebraic operations are equivalent to computations on graphs. GraphBLAS provides a powerful and expressive framework for creating graph algorithms based on the elegant mathematics of sparse matrix operations on a semiring.
