'''Blitz++''' is a high-performance vector mathematics [[Library (computing)|library]] written in [[C++]]. This library is intended for use in scientific applications that might otherwise be implemented with [[Fortran]] or [[MATLAB]].
Blitz++ utilizes advanced C++ [[template metaprogramming]] techniques, including [[expression templates]],<ref>{{cite journal |title=Scientific Computing: C++ Versus Fortran |first=Todd |last=Veldhuizen |year=1997 |journal=Dr. Dobb's |url=http://www.drdobbs.com/cpp/scientific-computing-c-versus-fortran/184410315}}</ref> to provide speed-optimized mathematical operations on sequences of data without sacrificing the natural syntax provided by other mathematical programming systems. Indeed, it has been recognized as a pioneer in the area of C++ template metaprogramming.<ref>[[David Abrahams (computer programmer)|David Abrahams]], [[Aleksey Gurtovoy]]: ''C++ Template Metaprogramming: Concepts, Tools, and Techniques from Boost and Beyond'', Addison-Wesley, {{ISBN|0-321-22725-5}}</ref>
