we have a tutorial for new users of the library which
explains the basic elements of finite element programs based
on the library, and provides some small example programs.</p>

in the library are extensively documented (presently
approximately 1250 pages if printed). We write this
documentation directly into the source code, which makes it
much easier to keep it up to date, and use automatic tools to
extract it into HTML or into printable formats.

continuous advice in the early implementation stages on questions
