Hello!
Is there a math library for Haskell, using which one can calculate eigenvalues of matrices?
There is a binding to BLAS/LAPACK at http://www.isi.edu/~hdaume/HBlas/ but it might be too heavyweight for just calculating eigenvalues. however, it should be fast :) A standard matrix representation in the libraries would be nice. (not necessarily all matrix operations, but a representation/type so different peoples matrix libraries can play nice with each other) I was thinking something like a general matrix type, which a class for things that can be converted too it, and another class with a partial function for converting the general matricies to specific implementation versions. (so that one can write a library only for square matricies for instance and still use the general conversion routines) But I am sure others have given this more thought...
