Can you ever imagine Wolfram saying (as Moler does) his target is upping the game of Excel users?

Cleve Moler did a lot of great work that advanced the state of art in numerical analysis and applied mathematics.

Cleve Moler learned about this technique from code written by William Kahan and K.

Given his contributions to the field some arrogance would be understandable, but instead Cleve Moler appears to have remained a pretty down-to-earth dude.

Add Cleve Moler and Jack Dangermond, I suppose.

I heard from a talk by Cleve Moler that hardware/engineering companies are the big customers (the likes of Honda).

Adjustments and alterations passed through both Silicon Graphics and 3dfx Interactive, with the original constant being derived in a collaboration between Cleve Moler and Gregory Walsh, while Gregory worked for Ardent Computing in the late 1980s.[3] Walsh and Moler adapted their version from an unpublished paper by William Kahan and K.

So, for the two n^2 cases, I found tricky ways to use the n(log(n)) heap sort without using more storage (did some tricky overlay, reuse of the storage in the passed parameters) and for the polynomial case used some Forsythe and Moler work to get better numerical accuracy.

Regarding section "The exponential map and logarithm map", if you're interested in computing the matrix exponential, there is the classic: C Moler, C Van Loan, "Nineteen dubious ways to compute the exponential of a matrix, twenty-five years later".

Moler talks about his delight in seeing Matlab results in the real world, and the decisions he got wrong.

Cleve Moler, one of the founders of MathWorks, has written two free books.

Apparently its attributed to Greg Walsh who got the idea working on the Titan graphics computer at Ardent Computers with Cleve Moler, the author of matlab.
