/**
 * Compute the (Moore-Penrose) pseudo-inverse of a matrix.
 *
 * If the singular value decomposition (SVD) of A = UΣVᵀ then the pseudoinverse A⁻¹ = VΣ⁻¹Uᵀ, where ᵀ indicates transpose and Σ⁻¹ is obtained by taking the reciprocal of each nonzero element on the diagonal, leaving zeros in place. Elements on the diagonal smaller than ``rcond`` times the largest singular value are considered zero.
 *
 * @parameter A		Input matrix. **WARNING**: the input matrix ``A`` is destroyed. However, it is still the responsibility of the caller to free it.
 * @parameter rcond		A real number specifying the singular value threshold for inclusion. NumPy default for ``rcond`` is 1E-15.
 *
 * @returns A_pinv		Matrix containing the result. ``A_pinv`` is allocated in this function and it is the responsibility of the caller to free it.

I am trying to use the code above in cygwin and despite the fact that I have no error associated, I can`t get any answer.
Can someone help me?

You forgot:
#include <gsl/gsl_linalg.h>
For:
gsl_linalg_SV_decomp(A, V, u, _tmp_vec);

Thank you @GhostNaN! Gist has been updated.

No problem @turingbirds! It works great for getting my Savitzky Golay coefficients.
