Research Software.
This is software of narrow scope developed as a byproduct
of a research project and subsequently made available at no cost to the public.
The software is often meant to demonstrate new numerical methods or software
engineering strategies which were the subject of a research project. When
developed, the software typically contains capabilities unavailable elsewhere.
While the software may be quite capable, it is typically not professionally
packaged and its use may require some expertise. The software is typically
provided as source code or via a web-based service, and no support is provided.
►
Open Source Collections and Systems.
These are collections of software (e.g. libraries) or interactive systems of
a somewhat broad scope. Contents may be adapted from research software or may
be contributed by project participants who donate their services to the project.
The software is made freely available to the public, typically in source code form.
While formal support of the collection may not be provided by its developers,
within active projects there is often a core group who
donate time to consider bug reports and make updates to the collection.
►
Software Associated with Books.
An increasing number of published books have
included digital media containing software described in the book. Often, the
collection of software covers a fairly broad area. Such software is typically
developed by the book author. While it is not professionally packaged,
it often provides a useful tool for readers to experiment with the concepts
discussed in the book. The software itself is typically not formally supported
by its authors.
►
Commercial Software.
Such software ranges from a collection of reusable software
parts (e.g., a library) to fully functional interactive computing environments
with an associated computing language. Such software is usually professionally
developed, tested, and maintained to high standards. It is available for purchase,
often with accompanying updates and consulting support.

►All of the mathematical information contained in the Handbook is also contained in the DLMF, along with additional features such as more graphics, expanded tables, and higher members of some families of formulas; in consequence, in the Handbook there are occasional gaps in the
numbering sequences of equations, tables, and figures.
