THE JAMPACK OWNER'S MANUAL

This document describes a pre-alpha release of Jampack--a package for manipulating matrices in Java. It is not a tutorial and assumes that the reader is familiar with matrices and Java programming. Nontheless it should serve to get you started.

Jampack, like its author, has one foot in the University of Maryland and the other in NIST. In preparing Jampack, I have been particularly indebted to my friends at NIST--Ron Boisvert, Bruce Miller, Roldan Pozo, and Karen Remmington. There willingness to listen to my ideas and their helpful advice turned what might have been a long, lonely slog of coding into a stimulating project.
