Overall, <http://www.boost.org/> consists of many C++ libraries,
a subset of which are being considered for addition to the next
version of the Standard. (Ada folks, take heed! Something like
this or the fabled Ada0X would be useful.) There is a uBLAS
librray there that does linear algebra.

I think the most elaborate example of this kind of coding is
Todd Veldhuizen's Blitz++, <http://www.oonumerics.org/blitz/>.
If you don't look at any others, you have to see this one. It
makes most C++ compilers sweat, cry, and fall down.

Looking up a bit, <http://www.oonumerics.org/oon> lists a ton
of C++ numerics libraries (although some of the links are dead.)

Then there's POOMA, <http://www.codesourcery.com/pooma/pooma>.
CodeSourcery also works on maintaining and updating GCC, so some
of the same people may be modifying your Ada compiler!
