Hello,
for the math libraries you can have a look at the RAA
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/cat.rhtml?category_major=Library;category_minor=Math
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/cat.rhtml?category_major=Library;category_minor=Numerical
etc...

I would be happy to share experience concerning numerics with ruby. I
use the gsl libraries and also played a little bit with narray.


Concerning the gsl libraries(there are two version, both incomplete
but usable), i wonder if they are still maintained, its a long time
they were not updated. But i'd really like to see some advance in that
field.


Ciao
