How To Install librsb-dev on Kali Linux
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install librsb-dev on Kali Linux.
What is librsb-dev
librsb-dev is:
This is a library for sparse matrix computations featuring the Recursive Sparse Blocks (RSB) matrix format. This format allows cache efficient and multi-threaded (that is, shared memory parallel) operations on large sparse matrices. It provides the most common operations necessary to iterative solvers, like matrix-vector multiplication, triangular solution, rows/columns scaling, diagonal extraction / setting, blocks extraction, norm computation, formats conversion. The RSB format is especially well suited for symmetric and transposed multiplication variants.
This package contains the static libraries for development with librsb, including examples.
