If numerical instability is a problem, there is
the option to use rational numbers, that is,
invert  x: x  instead of x .  It'd be much more
expensive in space and time but  %.x: x  would find
THE inverse if there is one.

Subject: [Jgeneral] Invert max  and LAPACK

 On my system it is possible to invert up to 87*87 matrices with J
 and widows on a PC.
 I  believe excell goes to something like 64*64.
 Of cause SAS and GAMS can go higher, but

 Is it possible to get J to invert larger matrices? May be as Sparse?

 As you may have guessed the LAPACK lab did not work on my PC.
 I can download it to the add on area, but a call from the LAPACK
 lab results in an error. Is there a solution to that?

 Error in jijs_jctrl_fkey..


 Best wishes
