Instructions for the Impatient

0) Verify that CUDA 4.x is installed
    $ nvcc --version
    nvcc: NVIDIA (R) Cuda compiler driver
    Copyright (c) 2005-2011 NVIDIA Corporation
    Built on Fri_Jan_13_01:52:47_PST_2012
    Cuda compilation tools, release 4.1, V0.2.1221

1) Download Cusp v0.3.x
    http://cusp-library.googlecode.com/files/cusp-v0.3.0.zip

2) Extract contents of ZIP files to the CUDA include directory:
    /usr/local/cuda/include/ on a Linux and Mac OSX
    C:\CUDA\include\ on a Windows system

3) Save the following program to a file named version.cu

    #include <thrust/version.h>
    #include <cusp/version.h>
    #include <iostream>

    int main(void)
    {
        std::cout << "The following libraries were found:" << std::endl;

        std::cout << "    CUDA   v" << (CUDA_VERSION / 1000) << "." <<
                                       (CUDA_VERSION % 1000) / 10 << std::endl;

        std::cout << "    Thrust v" << THRUST_MAJOR_VERSION << "." << 
                                       THRUST_MINOR_VERSION << "." << 
                                       THRUST_SUBMINOR_VERSION << std::endl;

        std::cout << "    Cusp   v" << CUSP_MAJOR_VERSION << "." << 
                                       CUSP_MINOR_VERSION << "." << 
                                       CUSP_SUBMINOR_VERSION << std::endl;

        return 0;
    }

4) Compile version.cu with nvcc to verify installation
    $ nvcc version.cu -o version
    $ ./version
    The following libraries were found:
        CUDA   v4.1
        Thrust v1.5.1
        Cusp   v0.3.0
