Matrix TCL Lite is the free and downloadable version of Matrix TCL Pro of Techsoft. It is header file that contains library of functions for matrix algebra operations in C++, so you don’t have to personally write a code for the same function . Since, Matrix TCL Lite is a free version, its library contains only a limited number of functions for some basic matrix operations like matrix addition, subtraction, multiplication, inversion, and finding determinant.

To use the matrix operations functions in Matrix TCL Lite, just copy the matrix.h file to the directory of your program and include it using the usual syntax, that is;

#include “matrix.h”

The package contains a documentation for your reference. However, this documentation is for Pro only, thus, there might be some part that is not applicable for Lite version.

I had tested its functions for matrix operation of a 300 x 300 square matrix, in Borland C++ builder 6.0, and I don’t see any problem in speed, size limit and accuracy of the solution. The limit is actually dependent on your computer’s hardware.

You may use this class library with any modern ANSI/ISO compliant C++ compilers on any operating system. However, it was tested only with the following compilers.

* MS Visual C++ 6.0, 7.0 & 7.1
* C++ Builder 4.0, 5.0 & 6.0
* Borland C++ 5.5.1
* Metrowerks CodeWarrior 6.0 or higher
* GCC 3.2 or higher
