Blitz++

Blitz++ is a C++ template class library for scientific computing. It offers a high level of abstraction, but performance which appears to be rivalling that of Fortran. The current alpha version supports arrays and vectors. Matrices are only partially implemented and undocumented.

The goal of the Blitz++ project is to develop techniques which will enable C++ to rival -- and in some cases even exceed -- the speed of Fortran for numerical computing, while preserving an object-oriented interface. The experimental Blitz++ Numerical Library is being constructed as a testbed for these techniques.
