In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing FLAP on NixOS Latest. FLAP, or the Flexible LAPack library, is a C library for dense and banded linear algebra.
To install FLAP on your NixOS Latest system, follow the steps below:
First, open a terminal window on your NixOS Latest system. You can do this by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T on your keyboard or launching the Terminal application from your system's application menu.
If you haven't already installed the Nix Package Manager, run the following command:
curl https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh
This will install the Nix package manager on your system.
Next, update your system:
sudo nix-channel --update
sudo nixos-rebuild switch
This will ensure that you have the latest packages and dependencies on your system.
Now, you can install the FLAP package by running the following command:
nix-env --install flap
This will install the latest version of FLAP on your NixOS Latest system.
To verify that FLAP is installed correctly, run a simple test:
nix-shell -p flap --run "flap-test"
This command will run the flap-test executable to ensure that everything is working correctly.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed FLAP on your NixOS Latest system. You can now use FLAP to perform dense and banded linear algebra operations in your C programs.
