What is SciYAG ?
SciYAG is a long term project to provide the scientific community a good set of tools to plot and analyze data. It is structured in different subprojects:
- ctioga is a command-line interface for the wonderful
Ruby plotting library, Tioga.
ctiogais now deprecated in favor of its successor,ctioga2. Please usectioga2for all your new graphs.
- Backends is a set of ruby libraries used to fetch data from files. It is used internally by ctioga and SciYAG. You can however profit directly from it’s ease of use. Have a look at it’s current documentation.
- MetaBuilder is a complete system for type-safe user interaction written in pure Ruby. It features for now an interface to command-line parsing and to Qt widgets.
- SciYAG itself is a graphical program to organize, display and search scientific data.
- SCalc is a C++/Ruby library to efficiently compute the result of a
mathematical expression. It should provide derivation of the formulas
(useful for fits, for instance). Only the C++ code is written for now;
it is accessible in the
SVN repository,
module
SciYAG/SCalc.

Support, bugs and feature requests
We cannot offer you any support at the moment, as the SciYAG project is essentially based on good will. However, if you find a bug, we’ll be glad to tackle it. And if you’re interested in a feature that also sounds interesting to us, just let us know… or even better, implement it and send us a patch !
All this can be done on the Rubyforge project page.
