+# Make sure to enable the script via "chmod +x install.sh"
+# This script automatically installs RandLAPACK library with all of its dependencies, as well as builds the RandLAPACK benchmark files (done separately).
+# The project layout will be as such: the directory where the RandLAPACK project was originally located will contain the top-level "BALLISTIC_RandNLA" priject direcort with three subdirectories: 
+# lib: contains library files for RandLAPACK, blaspp, and lapackpp; 
+# install: will contain the installed RandLAPACK-install, blaspp-install, lapackpp-install and random123;
+# build: will contain builds for RandLAPACK-build, benchmark-build, blaspp-build, lapackpp-build.
+# Prerequisits for installation can be seen in the INSTALL.md file.
