No, the only requirement to use SLEPc is to have PETSc installed in your
65
system. Additionally, if you want to have access to eigensolvers
66
not included in SLEPc, then you will have to install other libraries
67
(e.g. ARPACK).

Possibly, the best way of learning to use SLEPc is to follow these steps:
82
<ul>
944 ono.com!jroman 83
<li>First of all, get acquainted with PETSc if you are not already familiar with it (see the PETSc <a href="http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-as/documentation/tutorials/index.html" target="_blank"> tutorials page</a>).</li>
761 dsic.upv.es!jroman 84
<li>Read through the entire SLEPc Users Manual. In a first
85
reading, one may skip the "advanced usage" sections. </li>
86
<li>Follow the steps provided by the <a href="http://www.grycap.upv.es/slepc/handson">hands-on</a> exercises, trying the examples in an available SLEPc installation.</li>
87
<li>Use the <a href="../src/examples/index.html">example programs</a> available in src/examples as a basis for your own programs.</li>
88
<li>Use the on-line <a href="manual.htm">manual pages</a> for reference for individual routines.</li>

</ul>
