Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install libslicot-dev on Kali Linux.
What is libslicot-dev
libslicot-dev is:
SLICOT (Subroutine Library In COntrol Theory) is a general purpose basic mathematical library for control theoretical computations. The library provides tools to perform essential system analysis and synthesis tasks. The main emphasis in SLICOT is on numerical reliability of implemented algorithms and the numerical robustness and efficiency of routines. Providing algorithmic flexibility and the use of rigorous implementation and documentation standards are other SLICOT features.
SLICOT is written is Fortran 77 and builds upon the numerical linear algebra routines from BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines) and LAPACK (Linear Algebra PACKage).
This package contains a static version of the library.
