#Installation

BLAS & LAPACK

You need BLAS and LAPACK libraries to be installed.

If you're on Ubuntu, you can install default packages

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libblas-dev liblapack-dev 

OS X comes with the Accelerate framework built in.

There is no instruction for Windows. You are welcome to create it.

Intro to D

1. Install D compiler.
2. Install DUB registry
3. Read about DUB
4. Read about DUB package format

Atmosphere

To use this package put the dependency into your project's dub.json into the dependencies section and the following imports into your program

import atmosphere;

If you want to write a library use detailed imports

import atmosphere.pdf;
import atmosphere.estimate.generalized_inverse_gaussian;
import atmosphere.finitemixture;
import atmosphere.mixture : MixtureOptimizer, MixtureOptimizerException;

Compilers and optimization

The DMD compiler is an easy way to start. To compile your program in release mode use the following build options

dub build --build=release

LDC

It is suggested the LLVM D Compiler be used for benchmarks. To compile your program in release mode with LDC use the following build options

dub build --build=release --compiler=ldc2

To fine-tune your program for native CPU add the following code into your dub.json:

{
	...
	"dflags-ldc": ["-mcpu=native"],
}

For more options run ldc2 -help.
