In this tutorial we learn how to install libspfft-dev on Kali Linux.
What is libspfft-dev
libspfft-dev is:
SpFFT was originally intended for transforms of data with spherical cutoff in frequency domain, as required by some computational material science codes. For distributed computations, SpFFT uses a slab decomposition in space domain and pencil decomposition in frequency domain (all sparse data within a pencil must be on one rank). If desired, the library can be compiled without any parallelization (MPI, OpenMP, CUDA / ROCm).
