libsleef-dev is:
SLEEF stands for SIMD Library for Evaluating Elementary Functions. It implements vectorized versions of all C99 real floating point math functions. It can utilize SIMD instructions of modern processors. SLEEF is designed to fully utilize SIMD computation by reducing the use of conditional branches and scatter/gather memory access.
The library contains subroutines for all C99 real FP math functions in double precision and single precision. SLEEF also includes subroutines for discrete Fourier transform(DFT).
This package ships development files.
