[dae2ba0b]36 <para><application>PDL</application> (Perl Data Language) gives
37 standard <application>Perl</application> the ability to compactly store
38 and quickly manipulate the large N-dimensional data arrays common to
39 scientific computing. <application>PDL</application> turns
40 <application>Perl</application> into an array-oriented, numerical language
[919683dc]41 similar to such commercial packages as <application>IDL</application>
[dae2ba0b]42 and <application>MatLab</application>. One can write simple
43 <application>Perl</application> expressions to manipulate entire numerical
[7dac9f1]44 arrays all at once.</para>

[dae2ba0b]46 <para><application>PDL</application> provides extensive numerical and
47 semi-numerical functionality with support for two- and three-dimensional
48 visualisation as well as a variety of I/O formats. The goal is to allow
49 <application>PDL</application> to interact with a variety of external numerical
50 packages, graphics and visualisation systems. Easy interfacing to such systems
[7dac9f1]51 is one of the core design features of <application>PDL</application>.</para>

[dae2ba0b]77 <para><application>PDL</application> is a collection of over 90
78 <application>Perl</application> modules. Some of these modules require
[7dac9f1]79 additional libraries and/or <application>Perl</application> modules for full
[dae2ba0b]80 functionality. Listed below are the modules which require additional software
81 or configuration. If you don't need a particular module's functionality, you don't
82 need to install its dependencies. The dependency tree for each module is listed
83 downward, meaning you'll need to start at the bottom of a module's tree and work
84 up. The dependencies are listed in the same order as they are in the
[7dac9f1]85 <filename>DEPENDENCIES</filename> file, found in the package source tree.</para>
