What features do the serial libraries have?
Please note: The FAQ pages at the HPCVL website are continuously being revised. Some pages might pertain to an older configuration of the system. Please let us know if you encounter problems or inaccuracies, and we will correct the entries.
It is not possible to give a complete listing of the library features in this FAQ. For a listing, please consult the documentation, which is available in PDF format, at the NAG documentation website, and in hardcopy at our Princess St. Office in Kingston.
