"Igor is a powerful, integrated graphing and data analysis environment
developed specifically for the Macintosh computer.  It combines the
familiar Macintosh user interface with an efficient command line
interface, allowing you to graph, inspect and analyze your data with
uncommon speed and power.  We developed Igor to be consistent, fast
and flexible and to produce high quality graphic output."
                                         -- Igor Manual

As many people who read comp.sys.mac.xxx know, Igor has gained a very
strong following among scientists (and others) on the network.  It is
a *very* fast and *very* powerful data analysis and graphing package
for the Macintosh.  Among its built in functions are:

    curve fitting to built-in and user-defined functions
    Fourier transforms
    histograms
    integration, differentiation
    smoothing
    sorting
    flexible waveform arithmetic.

Igor also has a very powerful macro language that allows you to
automate anything it can do.  If you are considering the purchase of a
graphing package (such as KaleidaGraph, DeltaGraph, Cricket Graph,
etc.) or are using a spreadsheet or similar application to do
graphing, you should check out the Igor demo.

I have posted a number of articles championing it, so here is your
chance to try it out.  The Igor demo is fully functional _except_ you
can not save.  Included is a Guided Tour of Igor file that will
demonstrate some of the power of Igor.

The Igor demo is archived on d31rz0.stanford.edu.  You may get this
file via ftp anonymous.  On most mainframes, enter "ftp
d31rz0.stanford.edu".  You must use the username "anonymous" and any
password.  The files are in /Igor/Igor_demos and are:

   Igor_demo_installer.hqx
   Igor_extras_demo_installer.hqx

More information on the contents of these files is in /Igor in the
file 00Abstracts.txt.  You can get help after you are logged in by
typing "help".
