This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-adapt package of adapt, a package
for GNU R that provide functions for multidimensional numerical
integration. Adapt's core Fortran function was written by Alan Genz in
March 1984, ported to S by Michael Meyer during October 1989, and
ported to GNU R by Thomas Lumley and Martin Maechler starting in 1997
and is now maintained by Thomas Lumley.

This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>. The
sources were downloaded from CRAN at 
	http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/

The package was renamed from its upstream name 'adapt' to
'r-cran-adapt' to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages for
R.

The 'inner' part of adapt has been available from Statlib at 
	http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/S/adapt 
since the late 1980s.  

The author of 'inner' code, Alan Genz, still teaches at Washington
State University and provides his software via the page
    http://www.math.wsu.edu/faculty/genz/software/software.html
While this provides an 'implicit' license statement, not a single file
there carries an explicit license statement.

The initial porter, Michael Meyer, is the founder of StatLib which was
the premier source code repository for statistical software,,
especially in the dark ages preceding the World Wide Web, search
engines and indexing, and is still a major mirror and host.  See
http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/modules.php?op=modload&name=AboutUs&file=index
This also provides some implicit licensing.

Thomas Lumley and Martin Maechler are member of R Core, the group of
upstream authors of GNU R. Lumley and Maecher have also released
numerous packages under the GPL.


The file src/adapt.f -- which provides the core functionality -- 
contains the following headers [ indented two spaces ]

  cMM this is the original adapt code with one modification.
  cMM instead of calling the external function "functn", a fixed
  cMM external routine adphlp is always called, and passed a pointer
  cMM to the external s function.
