Does anyone know whether the DECUS package SSP (Scientific Subroutine Package)
is available for a VAX/VMS system. 

I was unable to located the package in the current DECUS catalogue - but if you
are using, or have used this software on a VMS machine - please rely to this
message.

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

   Cheers,
   Loretta...

My recollection is that the DEC SSP was a transcription of the IBM 1130 SSP,
plain vanilla Fortran66.  All upper case, looking like card images.
Nothing but 3-branch arithmetic IF's.  (Dec Fortran IV for the PDP11).

I must have a couple of tapes and even an RK05 pack lying around with this
software on it.  But unless there is a real nostalgia value, newer and
better versions of almost everything can be found in Numerical Recipes.

Looks to me like IBM SSP became DECUS SSP which became part of DEC's
VAXlab Software Library (VSL) product.
