The NAG C Library Manual - Mark 8

The complete NAG C Library Manual, Mark 8 can be viewed on-line in one of three formats:

• PDF+HTML, a full PDF manual which can be browsed using HTML index files;
• PDF, a full PDF manual browsed using the PDF bookmarks; and
• XHTML+MathML, a fully linked version of the manual using XHTML and MathML.

Advice on viewing and navigating all the formats now available can be found in the C library online help document. You are strongly advised to read this document if you wish to try the XHTML+MathML format.

The Library is organised into Chapters - each being documented with its own Introduction and Contents list followed by a comprehensive document for each function detailing its purpose, description, list of parameters and possible error exits. Example programs and results are also supplied. All examples are available on-line to facilitate their use as templates for the users' calling programs.
