31 <para>
32 FFTW is a C subroutine library for computing the discrete Fourier
33 transform (DFT) in one or more dimensions, of arbitrary input size, and
34 of both real and complex data (as well as of even/odd data, i.e. the
35 discrete cosine/sine transforms or DCT/DST).

85 We build fftw three times for different libraries in different
86 numerical precisions: the default double precision floating point, the
87 older 32-bit (single precision) version named float which sacrifices
88 precision for speed, and the long double which offers increased
89 precision at the cost of slower execution.

93 <para>
94 The first build is for double precision arithmetic. Install
95 <application>fftw</application> by running the following commands:

105
106 <para>
107 To test the results, issue: <command>make check</command>.
108 On 32-bit systems, the tests can take substantially longer than
109 they would on 64-bit machines.
