Thanks for finding this! I've started working on fixing this on a branch. And fair point on the optimizations. Since it's primarily a header-only library these tests shouldn't affect much,...

Checking in on this - I've corrected the issues here, and I've updated the python package name. I have a version on pip now, but I'm working on a conda...

It seems to be a [BLAS linking](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25065113/blas-lapack-not-installed-how-to-install-it) issue. You can either modify the Makefile to replace `BLAZE_BLAS_MODE=1` with `BLAZE_BLAS_MODE=0` (to eliminate using BLAS entirely), or try to enable blas linkage....

Hi - Sorry for the trouble! I'm hoping this was just the library getting out of date. I've just updated the main branch (https://github.com/dnbaker/minicore/pull/64) to try to fix this issue....

Is it acceptable to have a core written in a fast language and then called through C or C++ bindings, or should they all be implemented in idiomatic, native code?

You're using the wrong version of python. This extension only supports Python 2, so I suggest using 2.7. Issue 19 had this problem as well. Perhaps the setup.py script should...

Your other option is writing a Cython wrapper yourself, which would be quick and easy if you’re familiar with it.

It's also a pretty small function. We could just give it static inline storage and save trouble.

I don't really understand why you've decided to add this comment, but you're right. If you want to see applications, look at https://github.com/dnbaker/frp for orthogonal JL transforms and Gaussian Kernel...

I recommend [this paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/1610.06209) for adaptive random spinners. The way to do this is to have a `linear | FHT | linear | FHT | linear | FHT | `....
