Mathematical packages that can be used from .NET

Question

which are some mathematical packages that can be used from C#? I know about Lutz Roeder's Mapack package, do you know about similar packages? I am mainly interested of numerical analysis: numerical integration, linear and non-linear equations solving.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Some free libraries:

• Meta.Numerics (www.meta-numerics.net, metanumerics.codeplex.com)
• Math.NET (numerics.mathdotnet.com)
• dnAnalytics (dnanalytics.codeplex.com)
• ILNumerics.NET (ilnumerics.net)

A proprietary library:

• Extreme Optimization (www.extremeoptimization.com)

I am the architect of the Meta.Numerics library. It addresses your main interests with APIs for numerical integration, root-finding, and minimization/maximazation.

Answer 2

NAG also have a library, currently in Beta.
