Description

InterCall connects Mathematica to externally compiled code, such as the extensive body of numerical routines in the NAG, IMSL, and netlib libraries. Built atop MathLink, it makes foreign Fortran, C or Pascal procedures appear like Mathematica functions, and it can interpret a wider class of Mathematica structures than the built-in Compile function. InterCall represents the most significant advance in augmenting Mathematica's numerical reach since the introduction of MathLink.
