Armadillo: C++ library
Armadillo is a C++ linear algebra library (matrix and vector maths) aiming towards a good balance between efficiency and ease of use while staying lean. This library is useful if C++ has been decided as the language of choice (due to speed and/or integration capabilities), rather than another language like Matlab î or GNU Octave. Armadillo uses a delayed evaluation approach in order to combine several operations into one and reduce (or eliminate) the need for temporaries. This is accomplished through extensive use of recursive templates and template meta-programming.
Aspell Heckert gnu.tiny.png
GNU Aspell is a spell checker that can be used either as a library or as an independent spell checker. It does a much better job of coming up with possible suggestions than other English language spell checkers. Other technical enhancements over Ispell include shared memory for dictionaries and intelligent handling of personal dictionaries when more than one Aspell process is open.
Async-timeout

It also contains a client (AT) side library in C and a wrapper for Python.
Atomthreads
Atomthreads is a free, lightweight, portable, real-time scheduler for embedded systems. It is targeted at systems that need only a scheduler and the usual RTOS primitives. No file system, IP stack or device drivers are included, but developers can bolt on their own as required. Atomthreads will always be a small number of C files which are easy to port to any platforms that require threading by adding a simple architecture-specific file.
Aubio
aubio is a library for audio labeling. Its features include segmenting a sound file before each of its attacks, performing pitch detection, tapping the beat and producing midi streams from live audio. The name aubio comes from 'audio' with a typo: several transcription errors are likely to be found in the results too. The aim of this project is to provide these automatic labeling features to other audio softwares. Functions can be used off-line in sound editors and software samplers, or online in audio effects and virtual instruments.
Autotrace
Autotrace is a program which converts bitmap images to vector images. It can import images in BMP, TGA, PNM, PPM, PGM, PBM and those supported by ImageMagick, and can output Postscript, svg, xfig, swf, pstoedit, emf, dxf, cgm, mif, p2e and sk

It features self-test routines as well as insertion, deletion, tree count, tree copy, tree walking and traversal, search, and threading and unthreading routines. Each function has a comment describing its interface, and each step in the algoritms the program uses has a comment also. Each source code file includes a built-in test routine.
B-Forms
'B-Forms' is an object-oriented PHP library for developing Webform-based applications. It supports tabular forms with multiple records of the same type being edited simultaneously, and provides security mechanism against data tampering. The library provides two base layouts that cover the the vast majority of cases. Only in very tricky form layouts would you have to write HTML code to specify the form layout. It also automatically saves and restores hidden fields. 'B-Forms' divides a script into three logical areas: form definition, data management, and form presentation. Forms have a powerful block architecture, each block typically representing a different data object within the form. Each block can be used to edit several objects at once- the library handles record management.
BLAS
The BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) are routines that provide standard building blocks for performing basic vector and matrix operations. The Level 1 BLAS perform scalar, vector and vector-vector operations, the Level 2 BLAS perform matrix-vector operations, and the Level 3 BLAS perform matrix-matrix operations. Because the BLAS are efficient, portable, and widely available, they are commonly used in the development of high quality linear algebra software, LAPACK for example.

BigMath
Based partly on Knuth's Seminumerical Algorithms and written in C, BigMath aims to be light-weight and fast. Its original implementation was for use within a kernel extension - thus size and speed were essential. BigMath supports only integer math, including add, sub, mul, div, mod, modpow, modinv, pow, gcd, factorial, radix conversion, scientific notation and various comparisons.
Bill's OpenGL Library
BOGL - an OpenGL scenegraph/renderer supporting modern hardware (vertex and pixel programs via Cg, buffer objects, etc), freetype fonts, XML resource files, bezier patches, state sorting, separate render and simulation threads.
Binary I O library
'libbinio' uses its own protocol to store and retrieve binary data portably. It uses an fprintf/fscanf interface, exporting eight functions: fputf, vfputf, fgetf, vfgetf, fwputf, vfwputf, fwgetf, and vfwgetf. Rather than using data types such as "16 bits", it uses standard C types and uses printf/scanf-style argument lists (it even uses GNU argument checking if available). It should be a drop-in replacement for printf/scanf and still work perfectly well. It aims to be portable to every C89-conforming implementation, but can use C99 and GNU extensions if available.
Bioinformatics Template Library
This library focuses on the data structures and algorithms used in bioinformatics and molecular modelling, following closely the approach of the Standard Template Library (STL) to implement efficient generic programming modules using compile time mechanisms. Although the BTL was designed with biomolecular applications in mind it contains classes of more general utility: for instance, the Matrix class could be used for matrix algebra in many contexts.
Biskit
Biskit is a python library for structural bioinformatics research. It simplifies the analysis of macromolecular structures, protein complexes, and molecular dynamics trajectories and offers a platform for the rapid integration of external programs.
Bit Vector
Bit::Vector is a (stand-alone) C library and an object-oriented Perl module (with overloaded operators) which allows you to handle bit vectors, sets (of integers), "big integer arithmetic" (e.g. for cryptography), and boolean matrices (all of arbitrary size) very efficiently. The package also includes an object-oriented Perl module for accessing the C library from Perl (the library can also be used by itself, without Perl). Optionally, it features overloaded operators for maximum ease of use.
Bitap
The bitap library is a clean implementation of regular expression (regex/grep) string matching using the bitap algorithm. Approximate (a.k.a. fuzzy) matching is allowed. This is the same algorithm as the one used in Glimpse and agrep, but it is much more complete with regard to regular expression syntax, and is much cleaner. It is quite fast compared to other greps due to the bitap algoritm and modern CPU architechture. Modifying code for special cases speeds things up even futher. Note that the complete 'search' string must be matched by the pattern. If you want to search for substrings of the search string, prefix and postfix the pattern with '.*'.
Bitpacket
BitPacket is a Python module to represent bit field structures in an easy object-oriented way. BitPacket provides three classes: BitField, BitStructure and BitVariableStructure which represent simple bit fields, and fixed and variable structures of bit fields respectively. BitStructure and BitVariableStructure are BitField themselves and all of them can be used together in order to build packets. That is, we can add any BitField subclass into a BitStructure or BitVariableStructure.
Bitstring
bitstring is a pure Python module designed to help make the creation and analysis of binary data as simple and natural as possible. BitStrings can be constructed from integers (big and little endian), hex, octal, binary, strings or files. They can be sliced, joined, reversed, inserted into, overwritten, etc. with simple functions or slice notation. They can also be read from, searched and replaced, and navigated in, similar to a file or stream.
Bitwise enums
A very simple, 0-overhead, and yet type-safe 1-file library for doing bitwise operations between masks represented by enums. Please note: This library has been subsumed into MiLi and is no longer being maintained individually.
Blib
'blib' is the Blinkenlights Library, a programming library that gives you a kick start into development with Blinkenlights/Arcade. 'blib' also provides the Game API with which games for Arcade can be developed. 'blib' provides functions to read and write BLM, BML, and MNG animations, and to receive and send the Blinkenlights protocol.
Blip Buffer
Blip_Buffer implements efficient band-limited sound synthesis buffers, allowing high-quality emulation of video game sound chips. After setting the source clock rate and output sampling rate, waveforms are generated by specifying the time points where amplitude changes occur. Treble and bass adjustments are also supported. Many examples are included that show basic waveform generation, sample buffering schemes, and more advanced topics. They can be made to write output to a wave sound file, or optionally use the SDL multimedia library for real-time playback, waveform display, and mouse control of parameters.
BlockCanvas
The BlockCanvas project provides a visual environment for creating simulation experiments, where function and data are separated. Thus, you can define your simulation algorithm by visually connecting function blocks into a data flow network, and then run it with various data sets (known as "contexts"); likewise, you can use the same context in a different functional simulation. The project provides support for plotting, function searching and inspection, and optimization. It includes a stand-alone application that demonstrates the block-canvas environment, but the same functionality can be incorporated into other applications. The BlockCanvas project relies on included libraries that allow multiple data sets using Numeric arrays to be incorporated in a Traits-based model in a way that is simple, fast, efficient, and consistent.
