|
|
tool well-known to high energy physicists, but it's also used in a wide range
|
|
of other data analysis applications. The system consists of the C/C++

|
|
hundreds of classes, which provides functionalities u.a. for:
|
|
|
|
- Data Histogram and Minimization Operations
|
|
- Linear Algebra, Matrix and Vector Operations
|
|
- Tree, Ntuple and other Data Containers/Stuctures
|
|
- 2D Graphics, 3D Graphics and Detector Geometry Modeling
|
|
- Graphical User Interface
|
|
- Operating System and Networking Interface
|
|
- Inline Documentation and PostScript Interface
|
|
