Re: exploring a fortran(?) library

I don't directly use the library.
I will write some fortran or C routines for use with matlab; I need the
MAX efficiency in array management, because of intensive matrix
multiplication and factorization. But, in this kind of routines for
matlab, I can only acces matrices as 1D arrays; so, depending on which
language I use, matlab may directly pass the data to my routines, or may
need to reorganise it in memory, which spends time.

For its internal matrics manipulations, matlab uses lapack/blas (atlas)
libraries, so I would like which flavor if these libraries it is, C or
fortran.

I could find malloc, getrusage, gettimeofday. So, it seems to be some C
code.

Thanks.
