Aston Scientific announces the release of Origin 7.0, the Windows-based scientific graphing and data analysis software, with new wizards and elements of the NAG library
This new version of Origin is the first scientific software to combine presentation-quality graphics, the C language, and elements of the Numerical Algorithms Group (NAG) library in a single package.
Origin's new features increase both ease-of-use and analysis power.
Interface improvements include modernised text and drawing tools, a plotting wizard with graph gallery, and a nonlinear curve fitting wizard.
Advanced analysis features include two-way Anova, survival analysis, and nonlinear curve fitting with automatic parameter initialisation.
A new code builder interface is added to the software to provide a C programming and debugging environment.
Essential elements of the NAG numerical library are built-in to extend Origin's analysis capabilities.
"Researchers each have their own unique requirements for data analysis software, yet have no spare time for learning to use new software," says OriginLab's founder and president, Dr CP Yang. "Therefore we have focussed on making Origin so easy to use that you will be able to produce results right out of the box.
In addition, we have put a C compiler into the software so that one can perform serious scientific computation using a familiar language."
