Helpful searching tips:
- You can do a fielded search by using the syntax :
fieldname=whatever
See below for a list of field names.
- Another good way to find the software you need is to use the
GAMS class
hierarchy.
- You can use
freeWAIS-sf query syntax.
Field names:
(global indicates that the field is included in the global index that will
be searched if no attribute name is specified)
- file -- any portion of the pathname for a regular file
- lib -- any portion of the pathname for a directory
- for (global) -- problem solved or description
- gams -- GAMS class
- prec -- Fortran precision (single, double, complex, or doublecomplex)
- title (global)
- alg -- algorithm or method
- by (global) -- author (name <email>)
- keywords (global) --
terms as would be drawn from a subject thesaurus
- lang -- programming language
Search Examples:
- To seach for single precision routines in the lapack directory that
do Schur factorization:
file=lapack and file=single and Schur
(since the lapack single precision routines are in the lapack/single
directory)
- To search for curve fitting or gams class E1 and its subclasses:
(curve and fitting) or gams=e1*
- To do a literal search for 'cosine transform':
'cosine transform'
