Softwares for numerical analysis may be classified into groups: the currently available softwares, the easy-to-write-yourself softwares and the hard-to-find-modern-software.
INTERLIB is an international pool of users of the third kind of softwares who realize that it is very difficult to use your friend's software if it is not properly documented.
Methods After a trial period of one year some general principles can be stated on what to do in such a library which is built from independent contributions. The present state of the library will also be presented: it contains mostly Fortran routines for the solution of partial differential equations but, it is in principle by no means limited to this field.
The Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, has decided to join INTERLIB, therefore, any routine of INTERLIB is available to the attendant through them.
