Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package libtnt-dev, which is
part of the libdevel section, and maintained by Juan Esteban Monsalve
Tobon <esteban at v7w.com>. 

This package contains : interface for scientific computing in C++.

The Template Numerical Toolkit (TNT) is a collection of interfaces and
reference implementations of numerical objects useful for scientific
computing in C++. The toolkit defines interfaces for basic data
structures, such as multidimensional arrays and sparse matrices,
commonly used in numerical applications. The goal of this package is to
provide reusable software components that address many of the portability
and maintenance problems with C++ codes.

TNT provides a distinction between interfaces and implementations of TNT
components. For example, there is a TNT interface for two-dimensional
arrays which describes how individual elements are accessed and how
certain information, such as the array dimensions, can be used in
algorithms; however, there can be several implementations of such an
interface: one that uses expression templates, or one that uses BLAS
kernels, or another that is instrumented to provide debugging information.
By specifying only the interface, applications codes may utilize such
algorithms, while giving library developers the greatest flexibility in
employing optimization or portability strategies.
