It's a dependency, but being an .ix file I'm not sure if this isn't some kind of toolkit (binary), rather than Perl. CPAN normally sorts out dependencies involving other Perl modules. You'd have to check with the documentation on the Cephes site.
another module at http://home.online.no/~pjacklam/perl/modules/lib/Math/SpecFun/Erf.pm which worked.
The other one may provide more bells and whistles once the .ix is located but there's no point spending time on that if there another module that works 'out-of-the-box'. The info is at the bottom of the CPAN page for Cephes: The C code for the Cephes Math Library is Copyright 1984, 1987, 1989, 2002 by Stephen L. Moshier, and is available at http://www.netlib.org/cephes/. Direct inquiries to 30 Frost Street, Cambridge, MA 02140. The netlib site doesn't appear to make restrictions on the use of the code but there's no actual licence either. The first module you tried is an interface to a binary library that does the work, hence it won't work without the binary. The module you are now using uses standard calls and/or 'mainstream' libraries. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.codehelp.co.uk/ http://www.dclug.org.uk/ http://www.isbn.org.uk/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/isbnsearch/ http://www.biglumber.com/x/web?qs=0x8801094A28BCB3E3
