Hi all
I am new to blas and want to know how to write a code for simple matrix multiplication A*B.
Not sure how to define the matricies/vectors.

Depends on what BLAS you're using. And why are you using C++ for doing linear algebra anyway? Use Matlab.

C++ compiler is for free, matlab not. Compiled c++ can easily be deployed, with matlab every user needs ... matlab. With C++ the computer can play video or music or render pictures to the beat of lin. alg. calculations, with matlab not.Quote:

AND you have to think about numerical stability. Thank god for the people out there who are paid to study that stuff.
