Colt

The Colt distribution provides an open source infrastructure for scalable scientific and technical computing in Java. It contains, among others, efficient and usable data structures and algorithms for Off-line and On-line Data Analysis, Linear Algebra, Multi-dimensional arrays, Statistics, Histogramming, Monte Carlo Simulation, Parallel & Concurrent Programming.

This distribution consists of several free Java libraries, for user convenience bundled under one single uniform umbrella.

  • Colt library -- provides fundamental general-purpose data structures optimized for numerical data, such as resizable arrays, dense and sparse matrices (multi-dimensional arrays), linear algebra, associative containers and buffer management.
  • Jet library -- contains mathematical and statistical tools for data analysis, powerful histogramming functionality,
  • JAL library -- a partial port of the C++ Standard Template Library developed by Silicon Graphics, contains a wide range of efficiently coded general-purpose algorithms on arrays.
  • RngPack library -- contains random number generators.
  • CoreJava library -- contains C-like print formatting.
  • Concurrent library -- contains standardized, efficient utility classes commonly encountered in parallel & concurrent programming.
  • VNI library -- contains mathematical functions and complex numbers.
