Abstract
This section describes, subroutine by subroutine, the major differences between the EISPACK subroutines and their Algol antecedents in the Handbook [1]. These differences fall into four categories: 1) correction of several errors, 2) minor algorithmic improvements, 3) changes based on consideration of Fortran language efficiency, and finally, 4) changes to better unify the individual programs into a package.
